AtomRats Detector Findings

[rocketaroo]

Obvious targets as well, the ones we have done gave little.

The majority of all the old coins were next to the new wooden posts and signs, mabey they dug them up for me, because yes, there's not a lot around but the odd one or two. Which are now in my container Its the amount of 'other' general finds like pull tabs and axe heads, iron lumps etc that keeps me going back. If that stuff is there then surely there's got to be a pocket somewhere.
I know what the tracks used to look like here, but when they ripped it up, they sure made a mess lol The old caretaker house sat to the far left of the photo above, behind the platform with the dams. I've exposed some brickwork and a bit of the path for any venturing eyes.
You can see how young the trees are to show that its renovations are recent-ish

My cousin found these yesterday, whos over in England, just thought I'd share it. No detector involved, they were in the sand next to their towel :|

 

[Wishfull]

Unreal, do you know anything about the coins, looks like a Nelson coin Atom

 

[AtomRat]

I've requested another photo so we can see the ither side of both. The below one is certainly a lord nelson. I think I can make out a date on the top coin at its lower half: NOV 22 1779??

 

[Wishfull]

That's the trouble with Oz it's so young we don't seem to get stuff like that here.

 

[AtomRat]

If the top one has two people facing each other or a guy holding two swords on its reverse side its a medal, not a coin. Bloody nice finds I recon

 

[westatrest]

could it be this?

 

[AtomRat]

It should be, I'm still awaiting the reverse side photo!

I had to run over to mums today to save her verandah blowing away in the wind and some clear broken sheets had torn from the screws, got that all fixed up and took the opportunity while I had spare time to swing. I've been on the hunt for a gold and diamond earring and a gold necklace, still unfound and driving me insane as I know they are there but they are being masked I think. Any help appreciated! The necklace was buried next to a concrete path ( noisy rio ), a tin verandah ( also noisy), and part burnt down 17 years ago with more noisy molt. The jewellery was not involved in the fires, but its making it very hard to find both items!

After chasing the original driveway, i found a strong bumpy signal, all 3 silvers were found in the one hole from within the old driveway river gravels The reverse side of the clean one has some oxodised area but she's shiny on the front!
That's a mega ugly bakelite rose brooch too! 8) Sorry bout the bird ice cream on the table in photo

 

[Goldpick]

Well done on the Florins Atom, the bakelite rose broach is pretty unique, it's a wonder that it hasn't fallen apart over the years.

 

[AtomRat]

Cheers mate! I've got my digging spot on now with the ACE, but I still gotta play with the other coils more!

 

[Heatho]

Good hunt there AR, top stuff.

Mike.

I seem to just get a lot of signals from deteriorated wet rust, I cruise south east of melb

Today was sticky beak day, sniffing out new locations. Came across quite a bit, can't wait to begin swinging the locations this week, here's one of the spots, just thought I'd share.
