[QUOTE="Thomo, post: 538138, member: 17391"] I've never been a member or associated with anyone else that detects in probably 35/40 years of detecting. Been a member on here for a few weeks :Y: I grew up in the bush in a small town in North east Victoria (Mt Beauty) and was always happy doing things under my own steam and by myself.( shooting, fishing, ferreting) This is one of the attractions of detecting This sounds like l might be a bit of a hermit but I'm far from that, being very sociable I got the urge to buy a detector back in the 80's when living in Mackay Qld. I advertised for a detector and was swamped with offers. I bought a Whites 6000D.( long gone now) Now back to my original question After detecting for many years you can accumulate a vast array of finds. I've been more than a bit of a collector of all sorts of other stuff over the years but with my coin relic finds l don't really have a display cabinet to display my finds. I'll have to rectify that My decent coins l give the silver a light clean with bicarb, copper coins only the minimum of cleaning and maybe a light oil and dry. The best of the best or coins that fill a gap in the collection go into a coin holder and into an album. Copper/Brass/Lead into a scrap bucket What do other detectorist' do with their finds Any ideas are welcome Thanks Thomo [/QUOTE]
