This mum & daughter share such an incredibly beautiful relationship

[@reginagibson3847]

They certainly do. Its refreshing to see a respectful mother daughter relationship

[@phillipstacey2586]

Just a thought, the stone you found with the grooves in it, may have been used to sharpen knives, or even been to used to sharpen flint knives or arrowheads. Hence the V shape grooves.

[@kevinallen9009]

Agree. I have a large Native American collection and I think that is a sharpening stone, but could have other uses as well such as holding cordage . I have seen similar stones called sinew stones but those typically have smaller grooves. So I suspect it is a sharpening stone

[@neliac1314]

I was about to say the same thing!

[@LanMysPage]

I miss your jewelry making videos. 🙂 💖

[@rhondadupras2477]

How awesome is that about the weights, crazy

[@sharbean]

That grooved pebble is fascinating!

[@wendynordstrom3487]

That glass lid would make a great cookie stamp! So pretty!

[@kayesdigginit1519]

@@wendynordstrom3487 oh wow, you're right. A 🌟 design

[@Lawknee]

Even a butter press

[@lolcatz88]

That’s what I was thinking too!

[@bonnerdebbie]

I am glad you braved the rain and found all these lovely treasures to share. Thanks for still hiding Charlotte on the finds table and for your stunning nature shots!!

[@cynthiat6505]

I love that you see all of nature as beautiful….at least there’s rainbows!!! I absolutely love your channels!

[@judyhowell7912]

Beautiful finds, ladies. I was fascinated by the school desk inks. Our desks in grade school had holes for the ink pots, but I didn't know what they were then. Thank you for the history lesson! 😘

[@evalundholm8528]

Tack!

[@dianalyman5950]

The coin with a hole in it, Jason from Modern History TV spoke about lead coins that were given to the working poor that the amount represented, ie; sovereign, could be spent at local food markets and the merchant would punch them indicating they were spent. 🤔. 🤗❤️🌈🙏🕊️

[@lolcatz88]

How interesting! Like food stamps!

[@jessicalawrence3074]

The lead coin is created from a real coin of the time. The silver crown with this design was a popular coin because it was associated with King George. It was common for people to turn these coins into jewelry. You can find many that were enameled and turned into brooches. The coin was likely molded similarly to the way Alex makes sand castings. You can see that not much care was taken in the actual casting of this object, by the fact that there are bubbles all over the casting.

[@albertoortiz3574]

You make me feel like being there Thanks Keep having fun!!!

[@debrabrooks6138]

The stone with the grooves is either native peoples or neolithic abrading stone. Awesome find! A friend in the U.S.A. Georgia, found one very similar by a native Indian tribe but is believed to be neolithic. Love all your finds!

[@munchkinheaven7877]

I remember using inkwells at school when I went into the senior school, that was in 1966, we were supplied with pens that were like a wooden stick with a metal nib on the end and we were given blotting paper too. We had to fill up our inkwells from a large bottle with a curled metal tube like a metal straw on the end. We were allowed to use fountain pens in the second year of the seniors, later we could use ball point pens that were issued by the school.

[@dthomp06]

Same here.

[@christinekeay8456]

I remember those pens in the late 50s/early 60s. If you got one with a damaged nib they were a nightmare to write with! I still remember my biology teacher’s comment “ what is this , a most untidy last page! “ Considering she had handed me the pen I thought this very unfair especially as she deducted 10 marks from my workbook, this was 60 years ago and you can tell it still rankles 🤣

[@fairyacorn4854]

Same here and the blotitng paper at our school was pink.

[@borderlass101]

I went to juniors late 50s we had nibs and ink but at seniors we had bics thank heavens.😂

[@Paleoman52]

That stone appears to be a tally stone. Great video!

[@enduringhope6859]

I believe that serrated stone needs to be looked at by an archeologist.

[@tonyaxeman4381]

It really makes my day when I see You two .

I stop regularly on the harbour in Berwick, overnight in my truck on route to Edinburgh, I walk into town and always stop on the bridge looking in the tidal river, I always wonder what treasures could be hiding below, maybe you'll find viking artifacts one day, happy hunting.

I think the tooth is a front tooth of a horse. Also the little oval shaped brass piece with a hole in it is a cover that goes over a keyhole. Love you ladies. ❤

[@mariedodds6307]

I'm hoping that you start a mudlarking museum at some point so we can come and view your treasures. Everything is so interesting. You could have a little tea room and gift shop where we could buy things made from your finds and see the shwoos and chickens.... just a thought... 😄

[@kevinkline6835]

They do sell things made from the finds. See links above. And the museum ( kinda ) is coming soon. Don't know about a Tea room at their home? Never know??? I'd enjoy it for sure. They have found some amazing tiny artifacts.

[@kevinkline6835]

Cool finds. The Sterling pin may be a Graduation pin? And the chain is awesome. Of course everything is awesome. Thank you for sharing your adventure and many blessings from Colorado, USA.

[@beckyj1493]

Wonderful vlog. I think maybe the horse man was worn as a medallion. And it would be two hundred and twenty years old. Loved the adventure! The chain is lovely. I think the stone might have been used as a sharpening tool for arrows or knives or both. Sending hugs!

[@elizabethevans8210]

Hello Alex and Gail. Do you remember the hard candy your Granny may have had? The ones that are one mass of 🍬 🍫 🍭 candy that are almost fused together? Well, that's what Alex's mass of beads reminds me of. Great haul after all.

[@kennethboydsr3966]

You too are the greatest that would be so much fun looking for the little treasures that you find I used to hunt for Indian artifacts. My legs won’t take me around anymore but I found a lot of spearheads tomahawks broken Indian pottery. It was so much fun. Stay safe be happy. Love you too.❤😊

Hoping to see some of these bits end up in jewelry, I love seeing what you make. Do you keep photos of your creations? Maybe a place we could see like Pinterest?

[@kathleenschaubhut4174]

Interesting finds on a rainy day. To me, it looked like someone had tried to shape the stone into an animal with 4 feet and a face, perhaps a bear. It looks like it would make a good worry stone. A good day despite the rain.

Great video, loved it , very interesting finds , fantastic, peace ✌️

[@roxiepoe9586]

As a retired public school teacher I can attest that a retired building for school equipment is a fitting place for a cocktail bar. Teachers become weary and need bolstering up in facilities into which children are not allowed. Though the children are seldom the problem - it is their parents - still one should not have to look at them or be looked at by them while one pretends sanity and elegantly sips one's cocktail.

[@christinekeay8456]

Am I seriously the 1st to comment? 😮 At 11:00 that's a chape for a shoe or knee buckle. My goodness ladies, you only had to find that one area of the shoreline and all of the very cool things were everywhere 😃 bravo on finding so many work things!!
