  6. Not been out much lately found these two really don't know what they are. Maybe horse harness mounts they are made of lead
  7. I have to agree it does seem to be very likely Victorian vanity/gentleman's bottle type "flip top" lid and the bit missing may of had a hinge attached like a ink bottle lid it just looks so hand made must of been a very expensive press die seeing its such a complicated looking design
  8. That area does look the most likely but it just looks like the rest of the patterned areas even though a jewellers eye glass This might be more clearer to show it could of be hand made

  11. Rather lovely white metal "silver" object surly this must of been hand crafted by a gold/silver smith? to make a tool to "press" this would of cost the earth Don't know what age it is it has no hallmark hence me saying "white metal" It did have a cork insert but no back plate and loop but could be a button or cape fastener or cufflinks would of been made to have been engraved It the same size as a predecimal 1 penny

  21. Iv'e no evidence but It would simply be impossible to say how many from the EU there really are here because they don't all put them selves into the system whether that's because they can't speak/wright English or modern day slaves Illegal immigrants is a whole new ball game and we could do a lot more to stop this and needs a thread all on its own
