[QUOTE="farmeroz, post: 32789, member: 959"] Iv been trying to find an old site where the early settlers of a town lived while building the train tracks before the town was established... long story cut short iv nearly found them.. but anyway.. First up is a paper shotgun cartridge found on the hill nearby. I know the plastic shells came in about the 60's? Is there any gun buffs that would know more of the age of this one? [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/959/1381572781_img_20131012_210632.jpg[/img] Next up... I got a signal and started digging, bout 2 inches down the soil turned into ash/charcoal and in there I found this decorated piece, the patern is stamped into it and shows on the other side aswell. Size about 75mm diameter.

Any info/ideas/guesses? :) [/QUOTE]
