Not my find, but I was 50 feet away from my detecting buddy when he screams out...FAAARRKIN HELL mate, look at this !!!
1857 half sovereign Sydney mint. The find of a lifetime. His hands were literally shaking when he showed me...

Wow - was this in a rural or urban location?

Avoca, Victoria. We had access to some pushed diggings used for pasture on the main Lamplough lead, just out of Avoca. Flat with a thin carpet of grass with soft clay and gravels at 6 inches. Very lucky to have the privilege to swing over such easy going ground.
My mate detects with a 3030 looking for coins and relics, but also snags the odd nugget. Actually working alongside his 3030 with a PI machine is an advantage to both operators as he can tell me to steer clear of iron trash and I can get him to ID those nice inverted signals as worth digging.
