44) Silver Finger Ring with quatre-foil design, circa 16th/17th Century?

45) Silver Groat of Mary - "Veritas Temporis Filia". Mary's nickname "Bloody Mary" resulted from cruel persecution of Protestants during Mary's brief reign (1553-58).

46) Silver Pendant in the form of a cross, circa post-Medieval (probably 1600s A.D.). David wrote: "It was complete when found on a beach near low tide mark with the C-Scope 990B, but one of the arms of the cross later was lost."

47) Selection of Harness and Belt Decorative Studs, circa Post-medieval (16th-19th centuries).

48) Bronze Cavalry Spur Fragment. The spur is known as a prick-spur or rivet-spur, with ferrous remains of the spike, circa Roman period (4th Century A.D.). David wrote: "When first found, in thick mud, I thought it was a Saxon brooch!"
