[QUOTE="oldtimerROB, post: 361451, member: 8947"] Madtuna. No idea what size,it was lying near the edge of a surfaced area.It looked more like steel without rust and not alum and looked old-no markings or faint ones.Maybe 30 years old for all I know.It was not squashed fully but someone had trod on it..Maybe a roo landed on top of it.Prospectors prefer beer so it may have been an old beer can. Saw more glass beer bottles than cans.I know I prefer to buy them at Aldi a lot cheaper than metal cans from say Coles.Only prospectors should respect the diggings and take them home as also being unsightly someone could step on one and twist their ankle. I wouldn't worry about the can too much just step on it and fire away. Thanks for sharing with us your hilarious experiences with drink cans as a boy.My worst experience was as a 7 y.o boy was going for a walk with my parents and stepping on a dead or sleeping crocodile just outside of Cairns which I thought was a log.
