This item comes from a large collection of antiquities found by a group of metal detectorists over nearly 50 years in the fields around Rochester, Kent, South East England. Many of the items were recovered from the ground in the 1980’s & 1990’s before intensive farming really took off meaning that they are in better condition than artefacts found today. We have selected the more interesting items to offer individually so what you will see listed on our website is a selection of the better British artefacts which are found by metal detectorists, many of which are seldom found and offered for sale.
