Christmas Tree 4711 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) Appleby yesterday. Several old coins and a Roman drawer handle. Lovely little cafe on the river as well. Sorted me out with a delicious bacon sarnie and cup of tea to start the day. Edited July 6, 2015 by Christmas Tree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44498 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Who says that is Roman btw? Do you just apply the word Roman to any old shit you find? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10779 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Why do you think that's a drawer handle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4711 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) Why do you think that's a drawer handle?Just guesses from the experienced heads that were there. One thought it was Georgian, one thought it wasnt a drawer handle. It was in a field that quite a lot of Roman coins were coming out of. Any suggestions welcome Edited July 6, 2015 by Christmas Tree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 42129 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 If it's decorated at the ends, it's unlikely to be a drawer handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4711 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Just noticed the manky old watch, top left. Chuck that shit away, man That's the good shit! Na, the bairn likes to see what I've found and is getting sic of my slide presentations of just old coins. I'm trying to get one of them into it but nobody's biting (I'm sure the laddie will get the bug in a couple of years). That drawer thing on closer inspection looks as though there's been a breakage between the two pointy bits. I'm guessing that's where it snapped. Off to "scratch" my priceless Roman artefact.
