[QUOTE="KSW, post: 9825694, member: 8708"]Not all jewellery but I thought I’d keep them together in one thread. I went to a car boot sale and saw a bowl of finds, didn’t buy but came back to have another look. Unfortunately the seller had just the mistake of walking round barefoot….and she had a rusty scythe for sale……so I provided first aid supplies and bandages and made helpful suggestions such as wiping the blood off the scythe before it put the buyers off. Anyway I digress, as a Thankyou she gave me the bowl of finds. A nice bronze ring , a curious GR clasp and a toasted pin thingy that I have no clue about. The GR tag is confusing as it doesn’t match any royal cyphers I can find, it’s got a c between the G and the R. Any thoughts on any of these would be welcome. Thankyou :-) [ATTACH=full]489951[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]489952[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]489953[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]489954[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]489955[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]489956[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]489957[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]489958[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]489959[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
