Hi all Heres the results of todays hunt a lot of old decimals 8 pennies (oldest 1919 Aus) and 1 NZ halfpenny 3 shillings 2 sixpences (oldest English 1911) Looks like an India crest on it?? 1 silver ring and 1 copper ring and a mystery object - could be some kind of punch??
And the ring that was of indeterminate metal a couple of weeks ago turned out to 14k white gold - oldest daughters sharp eyes spotted the mark today when she was looking at the collection - awesome:grinning:
Happy hunting all.

not a 1080 pellet…………
Some great finds and congratulations on 14k ring.
Your mystery object is the barrel off a dart. 
Congrats on the the gold - Those whites can be sneaky, in the past I’ve had to retrieve a couple that had snuck into the silvers bag.

Nice, does white gold contain Platinum?
Those silvers are nice condition - you’ve a good location there!
Hi All
Haven’t been out much lately too many people everywhere but here are a couple of silver rings from a beach where the white gold band was found - stopped on the way home on a cold windy afternoon and had the place to myself
The homemade one is the ugliest ring I’ve ever seen!

Hi All
Finally got the new Nox and taken it out for a couple of swings - it certainly likes those bloody 1 and 2 cent pieces from way down deep!
Got a bit of bling all 925 no Au yet though
Pandora necklace and silver Italian bracelet and a 925 ring
Most interesting find was the 1948 Otago anniversary coin - may have been gold plated?

looks a very nice silver chain,you cannot beat the minelabs on chain…
Some good finds there. Your new detector looks like it will serve you well !!
Hi Roy
Yeah I was impressed and they were the first chains I have found so maybe the GB pro didn’t like them as much as the nox
Thanks X-terra It has started well just a pity it likes pull tabs as much as it does!!
the more pulltabs you dig the more chance of those gold rings,try the nox on some small rings or gold earings,it will be a low number cosmo did some tests with gold rings on is nox you will have to check but i think a 2g 18ct ring was down in single figures.
It was small 9k that come up 8/9 on vdi up to 18/19 for chunky 18k seen up to 30 for a 24k on YouTube (beach pirate). That one I found one Sunday rang up 16/17 like kiwi thrup or beaver tail. HH&GL.
