How is it that a clock collector , surrounded by so many fine time pieces , has a reputation of always being late ???

True, but someone like me is worth the wait lol

Polished her up!

Fancy looking clock you've got yourself there Rocket, great to think you can convert goldies into something that will no doubt gain value over the years.

 

[Mackka]

Very nice tick tock RKT.

 

[Ramjet]

A very nice piece Rocket. A great reward for all those goldy hunts. Plus lunch with the wife as a bonus.

 

[rocketaroo]

Yep, it worked out well....was a bit of a country drive for us. Noticed the face was slightly crooked in the photo, fixed that now. The old lady was pretty sad to part with it, as it has been in the family since new. She said that I was taking a bit of her father away, its a shame when heirlooms leave families. This old clock was the home timekeeper, everyone wouldave depended upon it. Imagine people looking at it, time to goto work, school, bed etc. I love the history of this stuff, just like the coins, relics we dig.

Very cool clock. Its amazing how people look at you while chasing coins in a park, if only they knew how lucrative it can really be.

A little sad but also great that a new generation will get to appreciate it.

back to the same spot, for a short hunt this morning. Still pulling the silvers, 3 of us have been working this site, and we are getting a better ratio of them than normal.

 

[Heatho]

Nice, wonder how much more treasure is there. How big is the site Rocket, much more area there to do?

 

[rocketaroo]

Its a small park, about the size of an oval. Alot of it is modern fill, but there are patches of dirt with BHP slag, coke etc...those bits are holding the coins. More to do, but dunno how much due to the patchiness of it. Think RJ will hit it shortly...

 

[Heatho]

Sweet. Hopefully plenty more there.

 

[B5MECH]

Nice work, love the green 1912 penny 8)

 

[Secret Squirrels]

Nice haul B5, it just keeps producing.

 

[Goldpick]

Someone had a go at that penny! Good consistent results Rocket, the silvers are building up nicely.

Yeah, must have been someone digging around there before RKT got there (scratchy scratchy)(ha).
