Well done mate , good to see that florin and sixer
Plenty of other little treasures to keep you motivated
Your girls will have plenty stories when they go back to school :D
 
Great hunt Atom, congratulations on the florin, good to see a few silvers coming out of the ground for you. :)
 
Nice mixed bag AR, can't beat that silver feeling as they pop out of the ground into the sunlight. :cool:
 
Just returned from a swing, many moderns .. $12 roughly, no oldies..
925 swan holding a red ? necklace trinket
Oldish looking brooch..plated. I liked this find being almost pretty old
A few cars here n there and broken zippers!
Would have gone longer but batteries and back / knees called the day :)

Nice work AR. I'm keen to get out but would need scuba gear. :mad:
Didn't go near water today..this was a school I have permission to detect fully now. I don't use scuba ( yet ) just a snorkel n goggles or my underwater scope :) a rippa easy scope to make can be done with perspex glued to a bucket with the bottom cut out. Tie a kids swimming 'noodle' around the top of a second bucket ( to make it float ) with a mesh at its bottom to find the goods :)

I wish I had a hookah to scuba underwater for hours mate... haha very relaxing, peaceful and quiet down there
 
Would a 925 jewellery pendant from a chain have a fake rock in it? I'm talkin bout that red one the swans holding. Its faceted and loosely held in the shape, quite easy for it to fall out

Could be fake but most likely a semi-precious stone. Do a close up of it mate and that will give a better idea. Could be a garnet, can already tell it's probably not a Ruby. :) The stone in the ring in my avatar is a Garnet.

Nice hunt mate.
 
Nice finds Atom. I think Ramjets reference to SCUBA Gear was to the amount of rain they have had where he lives.
Cheers

Ok - only just my phone to be able to upload photos again as I couldn't last night!

Woohoo! First gold ring, 9ct, pretty thin but still nice :D No oldies..just moderns but a few that were mostly deep.
Another Made In England Lesney car - Ferrari Berlinetta ( havnt looked it up yet, but its missing two RUBBER wheels..but includes the plastic toe hitch!)

A few dollars $14 roughly and also a cricket medal from 2013-2014
