First swing of the detector

It's been a while since I last swung a detector, as we all know, life does seem to get in the way of this. So this afternoon went to a local park for an hour. I've pulled over a thousand coins out of this park over the years and it still doesn't let me down. Some change and decimal copper, a 1944 Penny, 1951 and 1939 Half pennies and a little jewellery item. The usual junk went into the bin but the strangest find today was a spend 303 cartridge. You just never know what you'll find. As I record all my finds, the tally keeps rising from this park.

Excellent to see some motivational items found, amazing how that park continues to throw things at you when you swing there.

Nothing amazing found but an hour sent in the beautiful winter sunshine. Doesn't get any better that that!

Nice haul scoopa, this is the best time of year to soak up a bit of detecting sunshine.

I think I have recovered enough spent and unfired ammunition from Sydney parks and beaches to open my own small arm museum. Long gone are the days when there was a rifle on the parcel shelf of every motorwagon.
