Around the traps with the sovereign

[treasureman]

congrats on your oldest coin santa!

Bam,...there was silver everywhere,...getting your ear and nose in well there Sandta.

 

[Goldpick]

Bummer, though looked very much like a 3 in the first shot, oh well, back to the drawing board I guess. Still a ripper hunt on the silvers.

 

[Sandta]

Back again this evening
I extended the search area .... And came up trumps

8 pennys , 8 half pennys , florin , sixpence , threepence , $7 and 10 BB's

And surprise surprise ....

The long thing at the bottom of the first picture is a lead pipe...
I thought that was just something in the game 'cluedo'

 

[Goldpick]

Back amongst the florins again, great to see. Was that your second 1946 penny, or was that someone else?

Nice day out

Got the matching bit of lead pipe 150km away today, it is my first lead pipe.

What the hell did they use them for? Weaning politicians?

 

[Sandta]

No not someone else ... Thats my second

 

[silver]

Maybe those clover leaves really are lucky

 

[silver]

Makes you wonder what Caspers gunna come up with too.
no wonder I;m not getting much,....no four leaf clovers found by me at all(darn),....suppose it might help if I started looking. :lol:

 

[silver]

Casper might get a small nugget,.. a medium nugget,.... and a huge nugget.
But he might need to keep up on them moose leaf clovers for the real biggie. :lol:
Or he could luck onto a big tin of sovs.

 

[Sandta]

:lol:

 

[rocketaroo]

didnt know about the 46, need to check mine now!

 

[treasureman]

why is a 1946 penny worth so much?

 

[treasureman]

363,000, minted thats why
nope dont have one
but i did find a 1946 half penny which is worthless.
congrats

You cant find what isnt there.
Ive actually been working with a handicap ... Detector has been playing up for some time.
Totally useless in all metal mode. Just keeps squarking and carrying on a treat.
Have emailed minelab for advice yesterday... Just waiting to hear back.
