2018 Finds

[golddiggerart]

You get silvers in the parks and now off the beaches....You're a silver magnet... :Y:

Looks to be a piece of a large lead plate, an unusual find. That beach has actually re-sanded after being badly stripped. The finds just keep rolling in, and out of the surf I suspect. I want to make it a regular hunt, I was sore for two days after this one.

What I love when reading prospection forums is to see what people from other countries dig up from the ground ; for example, in my homeland (Russia) and where my wife comes from (Northern France), we find pretty much the same things : German helmets, rusted rifles, and unexploded ordinance from both World Wars... however, I was lucky a couple times, and found golden coins from the Peter the Great era and uniform buttons of the Napoleonian army in Russia, and even a Middle Ages coin near an old castle in France!

So it's cool to see that you guys are finding old coins, toys and random personal items.

Couple hours scratching around Jesmond Park, I declared it empty last time. Such a big park, but the juicy bits are off limits.

never say never, just grid a little tighter

 

[rocketaroo]

I dunno what RJ is up to, we dont talk much at all. No falling out, just doing different things I spose. I still enjoy detecting, if I find alot, or I dont, it doesnt seem to matter anymore.

seems he just dropped out quick

hope it is not major :Y:

and ya right about finds, it doesn't matter something i wouldn't have said 6mths ago :Y:

having just turned 12mths back detecting, it is just about getting out in the fresh air and :sunny: but in saying that i still like to find at least one coin or something non binable one silver in 6hrs is time well spent ower:
but i just wonder around (not when gridding but broad acre) smoke a few durries (i don't smoke at home, it's a sniffing thing ) an shoot the breeze erfect:

Glad to see you out and about Rocket, I'm a bit the same at the moment - happy to just get out and find a coin or two. Actually felt like I needed a little break from detecting for a while (probably won't last), I guess RJ has chosen to do the same. Anyway, good clean example of a 1910 thrip. :Y:

Very nice silver - great condition.

 

[rocketaroo]

I havent put the detector up for sale, and havent been out since last hunt. It's enough to know, that I have the gear, and can go if I want to

 

[rocketaroo]

Hi, it's been six months since my last hunt. Put the gear on charge today, might head out Monday, see how the body copes!

 

[Mackka]

Welcome back Rocket, we missed you big guy.
Cant wait to see what you find.
Hope you are well mate.
Regards
Mackka :Y:

 

[Goldpick]

Great to hear from you Rocket, believe me it was a slow start to the year and my body took a day or two to get over crouching down 100s of times. Anyway, I hope you snag a few coins to help you back into the swing of things.
