was the day for low yield hunts lol But you got silver, trade ya for my perfect fit button :)
 
Gday Col, 1949 roo penny , misjudged its position . and struck with digger

Yes the silver was my saving grace ;)
Very generous offer Rocket but i couldnt possibly take such a highly prized item in exchange for a meager rams head :lol:
It was actually the second coin i found.
Thought i was in the right spot , but it was mostly BB's from then on
 
Always the way, you get a pre-dec in the first 5 mins, thinking you have found a new virgin spot, only to find that it's probably the last pre-dec left in the park. :D At least the BB's gave you some exercise, with a few goldies thrown in. :)
 
Met up with some of the clan at the outlaws farm for farthers day
Managed to get a bit of a swing in before all the kids found me ;)
Its getting harder as they get older :lol:

There were a few more coppers , but the kids got them :rolleyes:
 
Are! the joys and rewards from being able to detect private country, nice finds.
SinHof.
 
This morning i headed off to one of my burnt down permissions
Very tough going to start with. :rolleyes:
A symphony of noises rattling through me , which i persisted with to try to identify the boundries of the building as nothing remains today.
To make matters worse , thick clover and tuffets of thick dense grass made it pretty darn difficult to swing freely.
The area is very large ,and with no real research to back me up ( i havent been able to find any reference to this site on the computer) other than what was told to me by the old bloke who now owns the property, i had no idea of the layout.
Still a lot more area to investigate in the future ;)

No good Sandta, better try somewhere else. :D Seriously, what a great spot, and a good spread of dates on the silvers too. Anywhere with Florins still in the ground should provide a few more coins yet, looking forward to see what else turns up. :)
 
Ye was a bit of a mixed bag date wise
All the coppers are commonwealth , most i cant read the dates
I can see 1911 and 1923(penny unfortunately)
Yet the silvers are much later (except the 1897)
And then a few BB's turn up :rolleyes:
Hopefully next time will turn out a few older coins
 
At least you guys over east are still managing to pluck out florins, they are like Hen's teeth down here. Reckon I'd have more of a chance at an 1800's silver than Oz florin. :p
