Around the parks with the Ace250

[Sandta]

A quick return hunt this morning

And a first for me .... A couple of military buttons

Im guessing this larger one is British

 

[Ramjet]

Nice Congrats on the buttons, always good to get something you haven't found before.

 

[Goldtarget]

They are cracking buttons, nice find.

 

[goldwright]

Cool buttons, they don't make em like that anymore.

6p is still my favourite coin.

 

[silver]

Onto the older more expensive silver too,.. nice lookig coin that one.
love the buttons,.... looking like a bit of a brawl site between one of the brits and us(ha),must have been fierce as they even ripped the keyhole out of the door,..... probably an old red light district I'd say!

 

[Sandta]

Hit the road early again this morning
Was quite a confusing site this one , only modern coins but plenty of older rubbish

I persevered for nearly 3 hours determined to get a predecimal , preferably silver
Well ,unfortunately i didnt happen on this occasion , BUT , surprise surprise ... This popped out ...

$13 in coins , plus a heap of those pesky BB's

This was a surface find ... Go figure

 

[silver]

Two steps to the left and ten paces further on Sandta ,.... Nice cufflink ,.... poor people, the good stuff would have been all in one spot only.

 

[Ramjet]

Great hunting i like the cufflink too.

 

[Sandta]

Thanks fellas
There is still a fair bit of ground to cover yet , so , maybe next time ill hit that sweet spot

 

[silver]

Sweet and deep.

Im pretty sure its only brass , must have been lost the same day they got it ,as it isnt even scratched

nice ring and coinage mate, pity we have to wade through the rubbish to get to the goodies, Ahhh such is life lol

I just realised I found a few of those Japanese coins the others day, I have a coin date decipher tool in my new forums research section that might help you find the date

Very nice buttons fella

[AtomRat]

Great buttons from the search before Sandta and also a real nice cufflink? on the last hunt. Its always nice when something pops up at the end!

Get back again yet?

 

[Sandta]

This arvo's effort

$7 , 3x pennies , 2x sixpence , a thin brass buckle , a square nail ,

Also found a 'identicare' case

I managed to get it open .... And the detail sheet is still in tact , early 70's . Im gonna try see if the person is still around

Has anyone got any idea what these things are ?

The bloody things were driving me nuts . One area was 2 - 3 in each swing ,every step
I had to move away , was then happy to dig BB's
I have come accross them before but not in the numbers there today
The rest of them are still in the boot of the car with all the other brassy / lead scrap type finds

 

[silver]

Phantom305 recons they are apolstry buttons of some sort (maybe).

 

[Goldpick]

That Identicare pendant is an interesting find, very little if anything to reference with on google. What is the buckle in the top right corner of the pic, is there anything on the other side of it?

Nice hunt Sandta.

 

[rocketaroo]

think they are roofing tacks, I found about 8 once.

 

[Sandta]

Heres some more of those ... Whatever they are

Also found this
I think it's from an old kero lamp

 

[Ramjet]

A couple of nice hunts mate. I also have a few of those rivets or whatever they are.
