The interesting find was this plaque, it has a hunting scene embossed on it and was originally silver plated by the looks of it. Maybe from a trophy or the like...........any ideas?

Commando Hunting...........Interesting Find
Back to the park this evening and tried something a bit different, decided to get into the bush real close up around the tree roots and bushes. It was hard work pushing through the low scrub but had its rewards. Not many coins, a couple of 1/2 pennys and a penny, $3 in spending and 11c in old decimal coins.

Interesting find. Anything on the back like the remains of some sort of attachment? Thinking it might be a badge or fancy clasp from a bag?
ReplyDeleteCool find! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, looks like there was some sort of attachment on the back, long gone now but there are two small indentations, one near the top and one near the bottom from some type of fixing. I'll post a pic of the back.
ReplyDeleteCould be off a leather handbag or similar but what about a Cross Country medal to do with horse riding / hunting. I see there is a small plaque where details could be engraved.
