Been a while since I did any updates on here after a few years away from the hobby. Last Sunday I found 2 pennies, a 1921 and a 1949 - my first pre-dec's. Today I ventured out onto an oldish rural school oval. No pre-dec's, but $3.50 in spendies and 2 international coins - a Greek 100 drachma...

I didn't get to the gold museum at Sovereign Hill but it may be worth your while? There is a guided tour type hire arrangement with one of the shops in Bendigo from memory.
