I'm still cleaning the finds that did not warrant my immediate attention during the detecting season (2012)...and have not been posted...I think I have 2 0r 3 bags left

In this round of cleaning, I came across some interesting items that I thought I'd share, most important of all is 2 silver thimbles, one is HUGE and fits over my thumb and is in perfect condition, the other has the tip off and is split.

Other items of interest, a croatal bell, a few lead seals, a bent bat wing buckle, a couple of musket balls, a VERY DAINTY buckle that has some filigrere work on it (next to the musket balls in the pic), a brass portion of probably a victorian hair comb, asette, and additional livestock tack
