Well went out Sat & Sunday. Saturday we met up with a group of people at a location i was unfamilia with and the place had been done before. Only thing i managed to get was this costume jewelry. I think its a crystal, not glass and could be silver. No idea on age though.

Sunday was more productive. I hit up my old faithful location and walked to an area i hadn't been before. Found a few coins on the way to the spot then found a very old dump with a couple old bottles. I really love this common essence bottle that has turned purple and a few other items like an aboriginal grindstone
Found an aboriginal stone tool today. Most likely a grind stone. I made sure I left it where I found it by Marc Russo, on Flickr

The coppers look good after a tumble, have always been in two minds over tumbling predecs, though shouldn't matter if crusty or non key date examples.

Well we went to a property we gained permission too on Saturday. The owners said that there was an old tip way up the back of property. I asked roughly what age. She said a pram was there like she had and around 1950's. I thought it was worth a look so we headed up there and such a good plan/ Pyro bottles everywhere! Caked in crap but we grabbed so many. This is one i cleaned up!
