My Minelab X-Terra 705 Hunts

[rocketaroo]

Dont worry Rod, I didnt take any of your precious BBs lol Nope Jacob, just a very old site, thats had a lot of use in the past. I can hardly swing 30cms without getting a signal. I may not even get it halfway done this year, its low on coins though.

 

[LonelySilver]

Sounds like you have found a good spot! I had a spot like that and i was pulling out skeleton keys, rings, pennies and even a florin.

 

[rocketaroo]

Florins dont exist, if anyone thinks they do....well they must be coo coo. Australias biggest silver was the shilling, which I have

 

[LonelySilver]

I reckon if your getting pds from that park there must be a florin somewhere 8)

 

[rocketaroo]

Tried a new spot today....cleanest ground I have ever detected, just a rusty old lock, and a few bottletops. Went over to a park, that has never given me a pre dec, and finally a 1944 roo penny! A really crappy hunt finds wise, but great exercise. I thought I had my first gold ring...its junk!

The sooner TAFE starts up the better.

 

[LonelySilver]

Nice finds

 

[rocketaroo]

The sooner TAFE starts up the better.

Tafe started last week, but closed due to tree dangers. Back tomorrow, no detecting till wed! Watchout RJ, think I am getting my eye....err ear in with the 705

New spot with Ramjet today, figured he needed a break from floods, and a hit of silver to cheer him up.

I dug something called a florin, thought it was just a 2 bob.....oh wait it is 2 bob, a florin of "the dale". I dunno why the detector gods would mock me so 8.( lol what a ****** florin, I yelled to RJ, after the realisation that it had 0% silver. Anyway, enough sooking.....I found a good amount of pre decs, so I am happy-happy.

 

[LonelySilver]

cool finds greg Nice PDs and a kiwi penny, Nice! congrats on the silver!

 

[Sandta]

So ... You still dont have a 'real' florin? :lol:
That is a nice find all the same, congrats

 

[Jaros]

Good going Greg. The water is still thinking about coming onshore up here in Brisbane. I hope it is another failed Weather Bureau prediction, for your sakes.

[Wally69]

That SIX :lol: :lol:

(edit..... Kiwi accent required)

 

[Ramjet]

LOL. Some people are never happy. Ya wanted a florin and now ya have one Doesn't matter that it was forged in the fires of Mount Doom, or wherever our Kiwi cousins mint their coins. You forgot to tell them that the sixpence was stolen from my coin hoard while changing batteries in my pinpointer. OH YES I found a coin hoard of sorts.
Good day Rockets. Thanks for lunch.

Wally that's funny. I got some fush for dinner, might have some chups with it.

 

[LonelySilver]

OOH i just released that that NZ coin is a FLORIN... it may not be silver but now you can say you have found a FLORIN :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Goldpick]

A florin is a florin I guess, just not a glamorous version so to speak. Still, you are doing well on the pre-decs, nothing to complain about there.

 

[rocketaroo]

Hey RJ, you gave-up on that patch, I was just checking your work Cool story behind RJs coin hoard, and how we reckon it came to be.

 

[rocketaroo]

Its a crappy Florin, but spose I am getting closer.

 

[treasureman]

Nice finds rocket maybe one day you stumble on a florin coin spill, like i have

 

[Heatho]

That's a choice find bro, eh. New Zulend coins are sweet.
