Viking ive added this beauty to data base under post medieval-thimbles.
if you get a clearer pic i'll replace it.
if you would like to add more info, county found in, type of land, weight,hallmarks and size please PM me and i'll update record.
its one of the best ive ever seen and it would be a shame not to do it full justice in our database.
cheers
