Hi,i'll just get this out the way first,i am not a metal detector geek type!!,bought it for one reason,my uncle when he was young decided to play pirates and buried all my grandfather's war medals,tunics etc and i know the rough area its in.
So,first off i was amazed how quickly i got bored lol,shocked me to be honest but the first moment i put the detector to the ground i found this below,does the shape mean anything to anyone?
It has been in the ground for a 'very' long time,the amount of crud i had to break off was incredible,it was about twice the size!Here it is.

It is upside down.

It is the part of a sign from an old roman road, obviously in the days well before weather proof paint was invented.

It is the graphic bit on the sign that shows the "end of dual chariot-way" with the tip broken off.

Deformed horse? Maybe its for a camel. So could it be a camel toe shoe?
