Not really. But there is probably 20 years worth here that I've been posting lately.

Not sure what to make of this one.
Escutcheon, secret lock, or double lock?
Now the second I've found (1st one was in complete)
38mm / 1 1/2 inches high.
Thank you 🤭
I think that about most of the finds I make 😊

(Please excuse the dust, that's 5 years of the winding rope slowly wearing away)
Thank you 😊

Half a dozen new ones there. And some better examples of those I already have 😊

Another batch done. Always surprises me how good the items come up 🥰
Definitely a few more new button makers there 😆
Afraid not. Although I could probably rig up a ringer thingy

I found another bucket of scrap up the garden. Lots more buttons 😂
Sorted about a third of it so far.
Guess where they're going next 🤭
Yep 😂

Couldn't make it up, go years without problems 🤷🏻♂️
Van was probably nail or screw from building site, out of repairable zone.
Car was stone, in repairable zone, but hole too big 🤦🏻♂️
Yes, much thinner. Never tried 🤭

Thank you. Never really thought about that before.
The Shilling roughly the same weight as a 2 pence.
And the groats, 1 Penny
Look good to me 😋

My largest hammered coins, 1354-1643.
4 Groats, (4 pence) of Edward III, Henry VI, and 2 of Edward IV.
2 shillings (12 pence) of Charles I.
And finally in the centre, a Thistle Merk (13 shillings & 4 pence, Scottish) of James VI of Scotland.
No, that's a different fragment, from a barrel tap key. The key in question is circular, with a tab on the outer circumference.
Can't remember where, or when I found it. But it would have been a field find.
Nice....... 😲

Marvellous, woke up to a flat tyre on car.
Took it to tyre bay, unrepairable, and that one not in stock. 🤦🏻♂️
Now the 2nd in less than a week, done a van tyre on Wednesday 😂🤣
Certainly has an official look to it 🤔
