This is my best find to date 18k white gold 10 diamonds .30ct, using x-terra 705, thought it was junk caked in mud and looked like a steel washer !

Thought I would ressurect this old topic. Some of us must have some newer favourite finds and we have a lot of new members.
This is one of my favs from about a year ago. A South Maitland Railway button. I like it for a few reasons. I work in the rail industry, it seems to be rare as I can't find any info on it plus I found it on the empty block of land next door to my house.

I only own a Z so i'm always on the hunt for the yellow but i have found some pretty cool stuff out in the goldfields.

I found the holloways ointment jar and the old clay pipe in the same hole with a bunch of nails.
The Sir Charles Hotham coin i found in old workings at Blackwood.

Nice going SC75, I love the little clay pot.

Yeah i was super stoked when i dug them up Makka.
The gully where i found them was worked in the late 1850s,1860s. I love my history and just to think someone was sucking on that pipe trying to find gold back in the day makes it a extra cool find

 

[got the fever]

Favourite find has been this gun powder flask 2&1/2 down near diggings with the missus using SDC.
Thought it was an old VB can at first due to the green that was on it.
Cleaned up ok but missing top bit.
I would still like to get the piece I have restored so if anybody knows where I could get this done it would be greatly appreciated.

[LostNowFound]

Todays find kind of makes my top finds...

3 pennys in one hole, nice spill, 1911, 1919 and 1951

 

[LostNowFound]

Also, at the same location as the penny's I found this beauty, my first button ever. Not 2 weeks ago...

Stoney can you help me identify it? I can't make out the letters, definitely a "A" and an "L" I can't tell if its Australia or a Latin word of some kind. I can't recall the shield logo? Wondering how old it is and who's uniform it came off???

 

[TonyynoT]

This is mine. Dont know much about it only its 1800s.
