A few other interesting bits,the little brass lid (B.A.HJORTH & CO STOCKHOLM) is off an old primus burner,don't know what the other thing is?

Awesome finds. Love the coronation medal. I also have no farthings after over 3 years detecting.
Cheers Ramjet.Yeah the coronation medal is my fav find was stoked when that popped out :D
What's the go with the lack of farthings?.... you'd think the little buggers would be everywhere :)
 
Some excellent finds once again Rockhound. Love the coronation medal, and as the others mentioned, farthings seem to be quite rare to find these days - still on my list of items to find. :)
