OK it's been a while finally got a free weekend at the farm with little too no work to do lol , went for a little swing at the old homestead site again and found a few half pennies

,
And my best find to date a 1945 victory medal

Sorry about the pics phone camera is on the blink

Great going Ivo, nice to find a victory medal hey, makes you feel all wow on the inside ,.... keep an eye out for your 1923 1/2 penny too, we are all destined to find one one day !

That's a cool find Ivo, nothing like finding a piece of Australian history. Have you though about getting it cleaned up and mounted?

The words on the back of it read "bog,shouse, loo, thunderbox, dunny, throne and onei haven't heard of before"KHARSI"

 

[Heatho]

Priceless Ivo.

 

[Ramjet]

A very unique find

 

[Ivo]

Anyone heard of or remember the out house being called kharsi? Was wondering how old it could be

 

[Ramjet]

Yes I have heard that term.

 

[Heatho]

Never heard that one mate.

 

[Ramjet]

Old cockney rhyming slang the toilet was known as the "Khasian roylet", which was abbreviated to "Khasi" and remains in use today.
