Residents across Shropshire who may have discovered historic objects are being invited to learn more about their past.
A series of Finds Days events will offer people the chance to meet with a Finds Liaison Officer, who will assess and identify artefacts.
The officer will also advise whether the items should be recorded through the Portable Antiquities Scheme or declared as treasure under the law.
Items recorded through the scheme in Shropshire include a medieval copper alloy dagger guard, coin hoards, and a gold mourning ring dating to 1680.
Discoveries are typically more than 300 years old or otherwise historically significant, helping to build a picture of life, work, and travel in the region through time.
If you think that you have found a historical object or an item of potential treasure, email Peter.Carey@birminghammuseums.org.uk and book an appointment at Ludlow Library and Museum Collection Centre in Parkway Lane.
Appointments are available on selected Wednesdays for finds recording and treasure cases.
