    @galba68 .....Really nice finds!..
    I'm with 10 guys at the moment having a couple of beers so I showed them the photo and these are the general replies...
    Fish, dolphins, stars, boats, sharks and corn..I hasten to add none of them collect coins!...

    The badminton shuttlecock looking symbols at 9 o’clock and 11 o’clock remind me of illustrations of comets from medieval art.

    Great post!

    Halley’s maybe? It was visible in the nights leading up to the Battle of Hastings.

    Very nice @galba68. Thanks for helping to preserve history. The things that you find help us (well, me, at least) see what life was like, just a couple of years before I was born, lol! Thanks again.
