Few more Priz 6 finds.

[B.T]

Took the 6T out for another run. Had a bit better luck this time. The site was first lived on by the old time goldrush diggers then by some a bit later. The old snake belt buckle and 1/2 oz gold weight would be from the goldrush and possibly the old cartrige case (has a D and an arrow imprinted on it) the other stuff from a later date 1900's.
Just had to take a pic of the big roo, a "Boomer" these big males are called, he was as tall as me allthough I didnt want to get too close but judging by where he came up too in the scrub it was a close match, im 6' 3" and I reckon he matched it.

I was wondering about that beautiful piece in the upper left corner too Larry. I think it says RAAF and I would guess it might stand for Royal Australian Air Force. Looks WWll vintage possibly. Really nice !

Sorry I take so long to get back at times, only get on the computer now and then at work. If im not working im not on.
Yeah the RAAF badge guess was right. I was wrapt to have found it as the site was pretty old and the home long gone. The area is about as full on with iron and tin as you could get with just about anywhere you dig the pick in at random you would dig some up. These are the places the Prizms shine in my opinion. My pick the 6T with the older solid 8" coil. Love it.
