Great finds mate. Did you bring a wheelbarrow to the dig? :Y:

 

[ktmman]

That finds mat you take the photos on was barely able to contain your relics this time.
Great to see your site still producing for you.

Well done, been able to discriminate in a very trashy area is really showing value, setting your machine up like that is a talent itself!
Again well done!

Well what a day, told the missus I won't be needing my camera as I was heading off to a hammered mid 1800's site with supposedly little prospect of finding a coin. Once again trying out pitch mode to see if any decent targets remain.

Spent the first hour picking out the odd button which was a good sign, then swapped over to the other side of the track to check out a swampy patch of ground which gave up some musket balls, .22 shells and another button. About 2 feet away from the button I got a very good high conductor that was reasonably deep down between some tufts of tall swap grass - knew it was going to be a coin, just a matter of which one and how old.

Got very excited when I saw silver, had to be a shilling going by the size, then saw the date - 1834, my first ever King William IV coin. arty: arty: arty:

Very rare to find a William coin around here, not only due to the age of the SA colony, also since William only held the throne from 1830-1837.

Either way, a very memorable day, will do a wrap up later for the rest of the finds.

Dirty buttons!

[Heatho]

Wow, what a coin. :Y:

 

[kitchdog]

Wow that is an amazing find - cheers for sharing!

 

[Secret Squirrels]

Geez GP even worn, that sure is one nice looking coin. Just looking at the pic, i think it would look awesome set in a little block of baltic. Was that done with your pencil? i think i need to get me a pencil any links? :Y:

 

[Goldpick]

I don't touch silvers with the pencils, only coppers. These silvers simply scratch too easily, so just a wash and very thin bi-carb rub to remove some oxidation.

Will most likely card the coin and add it to the display cabinet.

Congrats and awesome find on the Silver coin mate..... Nice treasure that one. :Y:
