identifying.

A small, thin, copper bowl with the bust of
Nelson embossed on it. The right hand side of the bowl looks as if it has
been broken off something in the past. Around the bust is the inscription
Admiral Lord Nelson.
It is made out of 1mm thick copper, 37mm in
diameter and the bowl is 5mm deep.
Found in North Nottinghamshire.

Lead Artefact
Found by Jeff Oscroft
|
 |
A lead face found many years ago. It is 36mm x 37mm x 3mm. The obverse is
plain with no signs of any mountings. It has the white patina that lead gains
with age. The design is faintly reminiscent of one of the early kings like Henry
even to the pearls in the crown.

An alloy figure of a fish with scales and if examined closely an eye and a mouth
can be made out at the end that has the ring. It has been shown to an angling
expert who said that it was not connected to that hobby and that its design
would not allow it to be used as a spinner or a lure. Both sides are identical;
it measures 54mm x 20mm x 1mm. This was found on farmland from which finds of most
ages have been found.
