[QUOTE="Blindbat, post: 186960, member: 6025"] And what I think is my best find to date! While driving along the Big river to Jamison road (20 years ago) on a fishing/prospecting trip I looked back over my shoulder and saw a ridge sticking out. There was nothing there but I always looked out for old sites and thought to myself that it may have been an old home site so grabbed the detector and had a quick scan. Sure enough heaps of old rusty nails were on the ground and nothing else. The home had probably burnt down. A sparkle in a tree caught my eye and there it was hung up on a nail in a falling apart burnt leather case. The compass part doesn't work. But I did a bit of research and the arrow means it's military officers from WW1.
