This Is Why We LOVE Thames Mudlarking! We Return To Our First Hammered Coin!

[@anneminnick2491]

I agree with others that the layered glass Seems to be old mica . Perhaps it was a Very early craftman's attempt to create glass type containers or windows with Mica bits connected like stained glass windows . Also seems to me that the Sepia like shades of the glass layers might be caused by deliberate fire craftworking or by there having been an accidental fire damage to the piece . Just so it is quite beautiful and unique . It would make a lovely pin or pendant piece . Thanks for sharing this interesting Mudlark , Ladies . Anne Minnick , Massachusetts , USA . Carpe Diem !

I think you are correct lots of people have said the same. Thank you for helping us solve the mystery :)

Oh good! Another video. No early night for me… I love the pin finds too. I wonder who used them to pin their clothes, what their lives were like, how their pins ended up in the Thames… they got blunt? Fell out? The millefiore bead is gorgeous. I have a whole string that my Great Uncle brought my Grandmother back from his travels in Europe after WW1. They are mostly dark blue glass with red and yellow. I treasure them. The farthing - you wonder how folk stored them. You could easily lose that. And they obviously did.

[@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers]

We love the pins, something so simple but with so much personal history. How they ever kept hold of a farthing I have no idea they are so tiny :)
