Thanks GP Some relics seem to come out better, from under tons of sand, than they do soil.

Just copper, it seems to spell "cheyenne", or similar.

[rocketaroo]

went back for more treasure, tide was in, but I was still rewarded Going to soak the token in olive oil overnite, before I pick more crust off it.

 

[Ramjet]

More silver and a token, nice.

 

[Heatho]

Nice work Rocket, thought that was a holey dollar for a minute.

 

[silver]

Just a cheap one aye !

 

[rocketaroo]

The olive oil has revealed the identity of the token, its a stockton ferries one. Makes sense, as I recovered it from Stockton beach Prob used in a turn-style, when boarding the ferry between Newcastle and Stocko. Good part of Newy history, this one is identical to mine, it was used in the 1920s.

 

[Ramjet]

Nice find. Good local history.

 

[rocketaroo]

yep, love the history side of the hobby. Mine token is soaking nicely, may end-up being a good example.

 

[Sandta]

Thats awesome
Cool find

 

[Goldpick]

Always great to find an item with ties to local history, good find Rocket. The mobile might be beyond packing in some rice.

Sweet, looking forward to pics.

 

[rocketaroo]

another beach hunt, got there on the incoming tide with RJ allready at it. Got a gold ring, picked alot of crud off it, and now its soaking....it maybe plated, but I hope not! The other ring is prob silver, both old rings. One of my 5 cents turned out to be a sixpence, neither of the kinder surprises were anything good.

Now that's real ! 8)
