Top finds Nugget, would be very lucky to find one of those around here. Will have to
check out some areas around my parents place in The Hawkesbury region.
I took the AT Gold out for quick hunt yesterday and found some virgin ground on the outskirts of a sporting oval. The ground was extremely trashy in some areas but still no match for the stock 5" x 8" DD coil. I hadn't been to this spot before because I honestly thought it would have been done over already, I guess it pays to think inside the box sometimes.
Before you ask, I won't reveal where it is just yet as I want to go back and see what else I can dig up
It took around 50 minutes give or take a few but because I wasn't planning on being there long I just freestyled all over the place. I plan on returning and working the entire area from end to end.
I had a spare hour to burn today so I went and detected a small park on the top of the river bank. I found a few moderns, part of what appears to be a belt buckle and the token below.
At first glance I thought it could be some sort of commemorative type coin but further research suggests its an entry / exit token for Wellington Caves. Age unknown at this stage but I don't think it's very old.
On the back it has the words "Biggest Stalagmite Of The World".
