Quick hunt after work a few coppers and my third military button big one this time. Not quite sure about other, hem weight I think correct me if I’m wrong. Good luck out there.

Nice button! Looks like a good spot it will have much more to give up!

CosmoCoinage · April 20, 2018, 8:27am

Thanks. Do you think the vdi numbers would be similar on the atpro and ace series?

steptoeandson · April 20, 2018, 9:06am

I’m not to sure but if that s the case it’s kind of in the junk numbers so as they say you have to dig it all

Nice action shot man! Those big forces buttons are cool.

Another passing through dig in Timaru, always happy with an 1800’s penny. Good luck out there.

Sorry forgot the action shots.l

Awesome result there man! Gotta luv old coinage & big silver. I’ve done a bit of detecting in Timaru, have you had a sniff around the old showgrounds? Still plenty there if you can find the ground in the big grass.

CosmoCoinage · April 22, 2018, 9:10pm

Thanks buddy. No have not tried the old show grounds yet but that’s my second half crown from same area if only I had more time but had to drive back to chch.

CosmoCoinage · April 22, 2018, 11:26pm

Thanks. It rang up as a $2 coin at 5 cm deep but was on edge closer to 10 cm a pleasant surprise.

Here is my results from last night and this morning. Two Vicky pennies (one bun type but slick as no date other 1901), one George v no date, two George vi one 1938 other is 1946 nz. Two halfs a 1935 British and an Australian one (no date) and a 1943 shilling. A silver plated spoon and a silver bangle ( 80% sure), fire service buttons ( 1950s I think), buckle and copper hair clip with fake stones. The pound note was given to me by a work mate. Good luck out there, till next time.
