You show me yours, and I'll show you mine.............

Here are my treasures, all dug in lil ol NP in the last 10 months.........I'm off to Aussie for a couple of weeks and will be back just before Xmas. Happy Hunting everyone.



Bronze, Silver and GOLD!

Looks like not only has the silver drought broken.........the gold gods were smiling on us today. We went back to an old favorite school for a couple of hours this afternoon. I have pulled out over 300 coins from this place including around 40 pre decimals, however only 1 silver before today. I was on a mission to find more silver and clean out the old decimal copper nickel coins I knew were still there. The pictures below show all the goodies we dug...................and the gold ring, yep it rung up in the mid 50s on the F4, I was almost certain it was going to be another old 20 or 50 c piece. Just another very good reason to dig everything but low iron signals. As with the other 3 gold rings I have previously dug, this one found its way pretty quickly on to Carol's finger!

A bit of silver at last!

After a horror run over the last month or so...........finally dug a bit of silver amongst the pennys. I hope the drought has now broken!


And here are the recycleable non ferrous bits, the silvery ring is plastic unfortunatly, but I think the rectangular buckel might be quite old.
