Far out... Thats excellent

 

[Goldpick]

A ripper few hunts there, wish our parks were loaded with so many coins. Most good areas hear have damned heritate listings over them. :|

 

[Goldtarget]

You must smile every time you turn the machine on. I could only wish for digs like this. Keep those pics and reports coming, this is one of my favorite threads. How do you go for junk? Is it retrieve all shooting?

 

[Eurekaman]

Nice finds mate3030 is a legend

 

[Dejan027]

I usually throw away about a kilo of rubbish each hunt. Tying a plastic bag to your belt for your rubbish is good until you fill it up and it starts to belt you in the knee cap when swinging the detector.

The good thing about Sydney is that there are only a hand full of detectorists that do parks and I pretty much know all of them.

Lots of virgin ground still available.

Looking forward to Australia day as there will be some good hauls.

Are you digging with a backhoe? :lol:

I keep telling people that detecting is exercise(but no one believes me),.. might need to see a close up of your round 50c and 1943 3d just to tide me over Dejan027.

 

[Dejan027]

Exercise is not the word for it.

I must have done over 300 squats and my knees are killing me.

I will get that pic for you tomorrow mate.

 

[silver]

can't wait,...but I will(ha).

 

[Goldpick]

Congratulations on the round 50c, pretty rare find via metal detecting across all forums these days. How deep was that find?

 

[Dejan027]

Here you go Silver.

The coin was 15cm deep found at the back of old seating that was ripped out at a cricket pitch.

The threepence was about 90cm away.

[Golddiggergirls]

Well done Dejan027, you have found some really fantastic treasures, thanks for sharing your pics with us.

[Dejan027]

I thought about giving it a rub but believe that it has more character this way.
