Love Victorian silver, well done chris.
nice vicky good work
New spot this morning was rather quiet at first then I found an area with a lot of old glass and pottery full of targets the 1876 penny gave an age indication of the mud.next coin 1903 penny then my second Jews harp (pictured next to the first) they clean up nicely sadly no silver but they will be there
Superb result. Love it.
the 76 has an H underneath the date heaton mint,worth a bit more the 75 is mega bucks
Okay, for the first time ever, I finally googled Jews harp.
I have some issues reconciling the early settlers grooving with this!
1800âs techno rave!
Bit like finding a NZ trup and a quick rub seeing 34/36 still heading back soon for the silver hey congrats on the groats next on my hit list
Strange sound alright quite hard to put an age on them but must be around 1900 I would think
They would have been coming out here with the whalers and sealers etc, I would probably put yours at late 19th C. Probably from the scows/mining era?
ciggy lighter, these were an alternative to the reliable zippo.
Thanks for that I saw a vid of a working one pretty awesome what you can make out of shell casings
This is a WW2 nautical divider, is this more like you found?
Jews harps donât have a hinged top
If you zoom in on my pic you will see itâs not hinged but an indent ⌠wouldnât mind finding some dividers though
Mate, with your batting average way up at the moment, I predict your next post will go something like âDrove past a spot with the detector pointed out the window, found some WW2 nautical dividersâŚâ
Might have to roll the trousers up and go beyond Redband depth for those though. Iâll drag you along the bottom behind my kayak this summer
Well goal is willy 1V coinâŚon holiday next week but if the westerly continues be chasing winter snapper instead of history
Nah, I reckon next will be spanish silver
Had a look on the low between showers 1876 thrup made up for getting damp and cold âŚa broken
Jews harp found close to one I found a few weeks back the round brass piece looks to be off binoculars

Nice little collectionâŚI take it the Snapper werenât biting then?
Damn! Thats a nice date thrupence, looks in pretty good nic too.
If thatâs a sparkplug I see - do investigate to see if it has a platinum group metal tip.
