I'm assuming the ones in the illustration are buttons as I think have some like the red and orange ones in the bottom of the picture in my button box. some of the others look familiar as well (I can't make a thorough check as my button tin is in the shed and I'm not going out this time of night lol.)You can find all sorts of goodies in littoral areas.

The Knee of Destiny .. love that.Another little Roman coin from last week - a 'common' Camp Gate (get you) from Constantine the Great (~325 AD) that came up well with a little rubbing on the Knee of Destiny. Also another crotal bell (late 18th C) and my first sleigh bell, battered but both are ringers.
