I have spent half an hour looking through pictures of New Zealand tokens and so on and cant find it - I hate failure!

Some nice relicy bits there. The Starkie plate dates 1907-1915. David Henry (Orig. Hendry) was a forestry industrialist, so ties in nicely with the milling in your area.
Good productive hunt.

Went for a wee travel north this morning found a few coins (1 silver) and a button. Had a laugh watching another guy detecting dig a huge hole( that you could put a 44 gallon drum in ) not sure what he found anyway a good hunt
You wouldn’t have laughed if it turned out to be a Greco-Roman statue - (I stopped digging when I found the nylon rope tied to it, and a 20 gallon drum, thank you very much)
The photos don’t show it, but people, that button is absolutely MINT AU condition.
