Hello,

Spend about 4 hours today in my own little world of swing, squat, dig, pinpoint and retrieve. Wind chill factor was about 3 degrees all day but I don't mind. Some of the retrievals were not that bad. Normal set of small relics/buttons. Think I might have a fancy ink pen top but will have to check it out. One of the buttons is a tiny cool anchor button.
Coins include:
1797 George 3rd Cartwheel Penny - One of my better ones because I can actually see some detail.
1878 Shilling
1914 Half Penny
1910 3 p
1917 Florin
The token is a bit unique. Looks like someone might have placed it on railway tracks then made it into a pendant? It was a Irondale and Co.
The leaf broach is also cool along with one of my favourite black powder bullets (near Half Penny in pic) - an Enfield. ( Used to dig these in the US as the south used the imported 1853 three band British Enfield rifles.)

Good luck, Dutchy (Jarhead)

Me too, what a great mix of history you have there, I could only dream of finding a cartwheel penny. :)
