Metal Detecting on the Thames Foreshore

I wouldn't mind metal detecting on the Thames foreshore one day.......I wonder how much stuff is left?

'Pimple' button

A 'pimple' button, found whist metal detecting. It probably dates to the 17th. Century.

Finding buttons and buckles on a farm, can indicate that there are other items waiting to be found. If you find a button from a certain period on a field, there is a chance, that there are coins from that period on that field.

Tudor button

This is a button, probably from the Tudor period, found on farmland, whilst metal detecting.
