Just back from a week in lovely Tibooburra. The weather was great except for some unexpected steady overnight rain one night which curtailed our movements the next day or so. Here’s the sunrise the morning before. Not much weight to come home with, but its just icing on the cake

Any pre decimal coin find is a good inspiration to get out there and keep swinging and digging..... there’s gotta be more around, just search out your local historical locations.👍

Thanks for your cudos Mr Tee, I’m glad you enjoyed going through my posts and appreciating what I’ve found . All that stuff that has long been buried certainly blows me away too !!

Looks like it may be a breather of some sort with these little holes either side of the hex nut/cap...

Back to the same spot today and these emerged from the trash. I’m not sure what they are, so any ideas welcome.....

I’ve recently returned from an overseas trip to Europe and got out for a play with the Legend thanks to a fine break in the shitty weather. I managed to pull a couple of nice targets from a very trashy spot that I revisited. WW1 Victory medallion gifted to school kids in 1919. And this lovely...

How did I not see this post till just now..... wow what a shock it gave me to read this very sad news. 💐 I wholeheartedly agree with all the sentiments expressed by those who knew this loveable old rogue who was always in the cut and thrust of the campfire conversations. He certainly taught me a...

These Raptor handles are available here...

Wiley, it looks like they mainly used cast iron guttering in colonial times going by some google searches. https://aztec-stone.co.uk/product-category/reclamation/cast-iron-guttering/

Looks like a bedrock/crevice brush of some sort. The guy holding one is from the Vo-Gus prospecting channel on YouTube..... he could probably tell you.

Well, off the beach for a change today and turned up up this little relic. Mr Google tells me its a WW1 military officer’s cap badge (possibly Major). Tudor king crown. Also turned up this early 1900’s name plate

Yep, I reckon mine is part of a lid of some sort as it has that lip on the reverse side like yours. If a lid then it's contents must have been special...🥰

Goldfreak, I found this broken piece off something similar. Looks like an alloy of brass / lead or tin. Not sure if it would have been petal shaped or round, but similar size to your intact one. Mine came from a site in Adelaide that has produced some 1800’s relics. Interested to see if you can...

Interesting,.... I have the top off a similar one, but it has no internal ID markings. I also had no luck tracking down the “M” trademark.

From what I can tell fossicking with detectors is allowed on CR land with the relevant department’s authority. When you have successfully received such permission can you please relay to us what the experience was like, ie, straight forward, difficult, frustrating, etc. Oh, and if you happen to...

Haha... yeah, big tides up that way. 😂

Even if it was solid gold mate, there’s no way it’ll light another fag .....for me anyway.

Someone will be crying in their beer after losing this at the beach. It’s a 1960/70’s Dunhill Rolagas lighter. It is heavy and was found in soft white sand on the towel line, so when dropped it would have disappeared instantly. It sounded off like a coke can when I swung over it. Plated gold...

It is a lady’s watch mate, swmbo says yeah nice, but it’s second hand :rolleyes: Here’s one for sale... $$$ https://www.fashdirect.com/product.asp?itemId=4181551

MB... just get a newer ‘Smart’ tv..... the remotes are smarter too. And smaller.
