[silver]

Talk about bein dragged out
Is more on another shelf... must be this years too, as last years got thrown (somewhere)

 

[silver]

Had to look in my other thread to make sure lol
So here's the rest so far this year

a few close ups

there is one more thrippy but it was touching a silver plated spoon and they didn't like each other.... spoons binned... coin is segregated

 

[silver]

I will just let this fade back into the background now :Y:

 

[silver]

Here's the good bits

pretty old set of frames there

couple of old lip sticks

an old lock

an older lock (looks to be)

other side says Yale

a few pennies and halfs

Queensland Railway button

and almost right beside it was a N S Wales Railway button
Qld was part of NSW before it became QLD

and an old ornate ciggarette case

complete with hallmarks

Sooo..... that means it's silver...92.5%er

 

[MegsyB007]

Great collection of things there, Silver! Can you clean up that ciggie case to read the hallmarks, or is too far gone to read them?

Cheers,
Megsy

 

[Sandta]

I'll see if it might swing open a bit more for me Megsy... looks like it was in someones back pocket when they sat on a hard chair (recon they liked their icecream a little too much too as well)

 

[Smoky bandit]

Well done Silver.
Some interesting finds there. :Y:

 

[Flowerpot]

Nice finds there silver. You're onto a great spot. :Y: :Y: :Y: :Y: :Y: :Y: :Y: :Y:

 

[Dave79]

Ripper spot! Love the old specs.

 

[silver]

It's probly just about finished (that spot)
It was just surface rubbish consisting of well broken old bottles that had been dumped (back then) an appropriate distance (50yards) into the bush from the road so as not to be noticed I'd recon.... there were a few mounds here n there of old battery cases too (and asbestos sheeting too).
Most of my coin finds were almost sunbakers or very close to the surface (nothing was really into the real ground surface at all, so it was definitely a dumping ground of sorts).
The glasses were on the perifery of the main glassy spot, and very shallow so not sure if they were lost separately rather than been dumped.
Here's the ciggie case a bit clearer for the hallmarks n initials.

 

[Ded Driver]

what a treasure trove of knick-knacks you found there Silver .. great hunting!
Im waiting for the rain to stop here so I can get out ... :cloudy:

 

[silver]

I still can't believe that someone through out a silver ciggie case.... I knew there would be the odd coin or two (no silvers 8.( )
