[QUOTE="Wally69, post: 420043, member: 1916"] Went looking for a gold sovereign pocket spill today 8) I have been meaning to hike into this spot for some time as it has some pre-pre-decimal pedigree and ii figured it was a good spot to strip your cloths off and take a swim, particularly as the terrain puts a sweat on you......even in the middle of winter. 8.( Indications of habitation can be subtle, but sometimes they stick out like a beacon. Here I found one of those pesky threaded bits of brass I find out on the goldfields. Also recovered something that definitively solves the mystery of where they come from.

I did prove my strip-off theory and will need to revisit this spot on a lower tide.
