Had a decent break in the weather today, hence packed the detectors up and headed off to a previously visited 1850's house site. Last time we were there the two main finds were a silver ring and cricket buckle, though just one silver for the whole day. This time the weapon of choice was the Deus...

You know you are on a good site with coins that old still in the ground, will be interesting to see what else pops up. :o

Plenty of Martini Henry cartridges around that site, hate to be hit by one of those projectiles.

Yep, Kg3 counterstamped cartwheel penny. :perfect:

Today's hunt wasn't exactly a ball tearer, though just enough to keep me busy -- this time with the Equinox 600 in tow. Most of the finds came from the edges of what would have been the original access track to this former cottage, conveniently highlighted by Agapanthus and bulbs at this time of...

Hi guys, yes I am still alive and out swinging the Deus and Equinox over the last month or so -- just being a bit lazy and tied up with work. I have been alternating between the 1850's inn and two other house sites cleaning up on whatever presented itself. Targets are few and far between on the...

Doing well on the gold front, are you getting down to a rocky bottom or still all sand? I think the ol sovereign is the most desired bucket lister for many, I'm still trying for my first - just in a different setting. ;)

Must have been a fresh drop back in the day, what a lovely coin! :perfect:

Nice pick up on the italian gold, looks like you are walking on water on the pics. :D

Now that's an old coin for Oz, great find! I also watched the sovereign dig, a very lucky man - a dream outing.

Won't take long for the goldies to add up, great start! :Y:

I think you will find it says VR (Victoria Regina), as per the same/similar pictured treble gilt button on the left

Great mix of coins and tokens, love the early William/Georgian coins. Bet some of those rusty nails sound good at depth. ;)

Anaconda usually has the Nox 600 at $799 club price, though the Nokta Makro Simplex pack at $629 with the wireless headphones and pinpointer is pretty damned good value.

Yet another visit to the Victorian era house site, think I have tracked down the main location from where all the finds originated with glass, metal sheeting, iron and some crockery coming out of the holes. At the moment it is very hard to get some decent ground coverage over the site due to so...

As the other guys have mentioned, that pre-dec silver bracelet is something special and very unique - got some top finds there Golddigg! :perfect:

Headed out with a friend today on a return to the Victorian era site to grid up and further investigate the surrounds. Still managed a few more coins -- 1862 penny & another 1862 hp, also got my first ever silver on this site, a very deep 1884 threepence. There are several sites around the...

Yes, probably more so for the nugget hunters. :D One day I will pull an old silver out of this place, aside from the reale I've seen a William shilling found, though mostly Victorian coppers. That was my third KG3 copper from the site, the other two were found at least 300 metres away from this...

Was in two minds today on whether to try a more modern site for some silvers, or tackle a very old inn site that has seen the odd Georgian coin and even a Reale. Problem was when I got to the inn site, it was heavily overgrown with prickle bushes and left very little room to swing a coil...

Surprising on what you can find in your own yard, was lucky enough to find some silvers in mine a while back.
