An Anglo-Saxon Sceat, possibly North 134 BMC 36, series J (around AD 710-750 according to North). Sceatta were small silver coins produced across England, Frisia and the Jutland Peninsula in the early medieval period. They have a wide number of variations and are mostly classified into series of similar designs. The issuing authority is almost never recorded in a legend. This particular example is missing much of its edge, but enough of the obverse and reverse design survives to offer a tentative identification. Obverse:- Head facing right with possible pearl diadem underneath hair r…

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy buckle with an integral plate, the surface covered in an even layer of verdigris. The object consists of a rectangular plate and loop. The loop is now bent, probably as a result of damage in the soil after deposition. The plate is rectangular with rounded corners and has a central indentation on one side, flanked by two linear grooves. At the point where the loop and the plate join there is a corroded lump that may have once been the attachment point for a pin. Whitehead (2003) suggests a date for this style of buckle of between 1250-1500.

A cast copper alloy 'moustache' shaped object, similar to BERK-C3E5A3, GLO-3F7F09, and NARC-2C32D7, though the general shape of this object is more linear and less crescent.

A small copper alloy object that resembles an axle or roller. The object is one piece of metal, but can be understood to consist of three areas that are contiguous; a central shaft and two circular projections of unequal size that emerge from and encircle it. The shaft emerging from the largest projection appears to terminate abruptly, possibly indicating that is continued further or has broken. The other smaller projection tapers smoothly to a rounded end. The entire object follows a slight curve, which may be a product of some action upon it after deposition rather than its original…
