Yeah.... always a chance of an artifact as a consequence any time you dig a hole.

G'day all,
It's been a couple of months since I had a swing.
So went down to my trashy beach to give the F2 update a go.
At first I wasn't to sure if it was doing anything but then the targets started coming.
Got a handful of crusty coins.

A few silver to clean.

And the find of the day for me was this WW2 medal.
Not to sure what it is yet but I'll give it a clean.

Everything came from this 1mtr patch..Nothing either side to be found.

how do you clean the coins they turn out great thanks
Hi Iindi.
The coppers just soak In vinigar for an hour or so then into the tumbler for another hour or so.
I should have let them soak in the vinigar longer but I was mainly concerned about the italy star.
Cheers :Y:
 
Gave Gympie ago this morning with the oldest and youngest bandits .
A couple of hours at the GPA and another spot produced SFA but the bonding session was great.
The new 888 sluice was awesome but unfortunately today the gold gods were busy eleswhere.
