OK, so i'm learning the the hard way, digging up junk when the detector is
saying 'hey, this is junk' but have had a couple of intriguing finds today. One is a large belt buckle with a greenish patina that doesn't look particularly ancient but may be a century or two old. Ther other find is what appears to be a plain lead spindle whorl. About Ø1", and very white oxidation, i'm currently researching on the net for a rough date. Also another item from the shadows of a very old gnarly looking tree. Again, with a slight greenish tinge to it and looking like part of a buckle but maybe something completely different! I'll photograph and post them in my free webspace soon.... On a different note, why the hell does time fly so quickly when you're detecting???!!! |
