Down the beach with the Sovereign

[Sandta]

Ye RJ same spot
I dont think home brand vinegar works
Probably 50% water
Didnt work real well on that silver the other night either

 

[Sandta]

Got in another couple of hours this morning....
Amazing how much things can change over night

60 cents , all found down low but totally random

 

[silver]

Just need a bit more off the top, by the looks of that,...low in the sand or low down the beach ?

 

[Sandta]

I meant low on the beach( closer to the water)
Most of yesterdays finds were 12-18 inches deep ( 3-6 scoops), also very low on the beach

 

[Sandta]

Yesterdays pendant ... Cleaned up a bit better than it was

 

[Ramjet]

That pendant sure is toasty. Have you been able to find out what it is?

 

[Sandta]

No , definitely Elizabeth though

 

[silver]

Here is my deciphering of it(the arrows join words back up) not to scale properly.

That's using both sides to work it out.
here is one that I found a long time ago(not exactly the same and smaller than a 3d by around 2.5 mms),..I always thought it was a kids play coin from the predecimal era, but, on closer inspection(just then) maybe it was a little pendant(not so sure now, either way).

maybe this bit was a loop for a chain ?,..or it could have been where they were all attached to a central piece(twist them off kids, ya know).

Hope this helps in the ID department Sandta.

Could the arrow be a +? Saw this one on ebay.

[silver]

Ha,..they were my arrows RJ, my artistic skills weren't quite on target, so the arrows were to cover the shortfall in my picture(they aren't on the pendant(haha)).
And that lucky charm looks like Sandtas find,..maybe the little ring part broke of it and someone(probably a dad) hammered a hole in it to make it wearable again for his little girl.

I thought your artwork was spot on. A very realistic image of HRH.

 

[Sandta]

I think you are spot on RJ
your a much better drawer than me Silver :lol: ...
your find is just a different version of the same id reckon

 

[silver]

Oh dear, just checked it out properly,.. I think I could have put a little more effort in on her nose,..ooooohaaahhh(I'll be for the chop chop now).

[Sandta]

Oh is tht her nose?
I thought something was in her mouth.... and you were off to the gallows :lol:

 

[Sandta]

Had a go at a different beach this arvo before being called in to work
Dont ya just hate it when work gets in the way
As low tide wasnt till 9pm ,i hunted up in the high dry sand working my way down to the high tide line

$11.90 in spendables , a brass bangle , and the last target near the stairs as i was leaving ... 925 ring

 

[silver]

Ring a ding ding,...lucky you got a truck to help bring out the finds Sandta,....my mum has a brass bangle that had a film of gold over it(very old) from when she was young,...it's just brass to look at these days,..two hearts together and in 925 with a stone and a light hole in behind, that'll sparkle a nice little glint in the sunlight,...and Christmas money,...it's all looking good for you young fella.

 

[Sandta]

Oh shucks... :8
' young fella'
Havent been called that for a while
Thanks

 

[silver]

HEE HEE HEE.

 

[Ramjet]

Another beach to clean up. You'll be retiring next week. Nice little ring.

 

[Goldpick]

Sweet little ring, the bangle almost looks gold, wouldn't that be something.
