The 2021 excavation produced more than 200 artifacts and samples, which can be divided into four broad categories. 
1.    containers:  wooden casks for provisions and supplies, woven basket, wooden pail
2.    personal possessions: shoes, comb, coins
3.    weapons-related:  crossbows and accessories, artillery and accessories, edge weapons, mail armor
4.    foodstuffs/foodways: osteoarchaeological remains, archaeobotanical remains including exotic spices

Archaeological interpretation of these objects is ongoing by the assembled group of researchers, with the addition of other scholars representing various institutions as appropriate. Extensive interdisciplinary studies of recovered artifacts are underway with specialists around the world according to needs and expertise. 
The excavation trench locus was selected to minimize site interference while maximizing retrieval of archaeological information. This area has been disturbed previously. A single deck beam is evident in this sector, with the rest probably removed during salvage actions immediately after sinking or sometime in the years following. Despite the disturbance of this locus, it proved to be rich in particularly compelling artifact finds.
A small iron anchor is lodged in the trench. The iron is badly degraded, and a fluke that broke from it was recovered (find A8). The anchor might be original to Gribshunden, perhaps a kedge anchor or an anchor for the ship’s boats, stored in the hold. Alternatively, it might be anachronistic, introduced into the wreck during salvage efforts in the decades after the sinking event, or at some later point when a vessel seeking shelter in the anchorage inadvertently caught and lost its hook in the structure. 
Selected artifacts are presented here, representing the most important objects retrieved from the excavation.
