This Roman coin is mule, or hybrid, of two different types. The obverse is a CONSTANTINOPOLIS type and the reverse is VRBS ROMA. Mules occur when dies from different coins get mixed up at the mint or by contemporary counterfeiters. #FindsFriday finds.org.uk/pas/recorded...

The Sutton Hoo purse lid which was discovered in 1939 as part of the Anglo-Saxon ship burial at Sutton Hoo, near Woodbridge in Suffolk. Dating to the early 7th century, the purse lid is now part of the collections at the British Museum. 📸 My own #FindsFriday #SuttonHoo

This is a post-medieval cufflink fragment featuring Prince William, Duke of Cumberland. He was a British military commander best known for crushing the Jacobite Rising at the Battle of Culloden in 1746 and for his ruthless treatment of rebel forces. #FindsFriday finds.org.uk/pas/recorded...

Another great find from the sea

Heather and Liv from our maritime unit discovered this grindstone during a circle search near the 13th century Mortar Ship Wreck

Such stones were rotated to sharpen tools and are known from the 9th century

Could this be contemporary with the wreck?
