    Trip back to the beach.......!

    Hello all. We went back to the same beach where we detected last week, and once again were very pleased with our finds. The weather was icy cold, windy, and some of the sand washed from the dunes onto the sand below, and buried the targets deeper. Most targets were dug at around 8 to 18 inches...

    Hello all. Hubby and I went to a new spot we hadn't detected before, an old school site, and to our excitement, dug quite a few coins plus other relics. We're trying to work out what date the silver half crown would be. It's very worn, but so far, I can make out the words Georgius IV. I've...

    Some info on this bottle please?

    Hello all, found this bottle last year and would like some info on it. going by the lettering on the base, the 'M' normally for having been manufactured in 1900, or thereabouts. But I think the bottle is actually later than that, possibly around 1920's or so. It's amber glass, fairly heavy and...

    Hello all. Found this relic a little while ago, but I've been meaning to post it, to see if someone might know what it was used for. On either sides of the base, there are holes which tells me the object might have been nailed or screwed onto a bench, table, or whatever. My mum has a similar...
