Hilux's finds

[silver]

Could be a jar lid..... lollies or biscuits or some such thing. May have had a handle above and cork below(maybe).
Could imagine lifting that lid and making off with a handful of jelly beans as a young one(not that I'd eva do that.

I looked around an old wheat belt school site. I think the school was opened around 1910 and was removed in the 50's. There was no sign of any sort of structure at all.

I thought I'd find more. Ended up with a couple of six pence.

I usually detect along the river - these were in much better condition than what I usually find.

Finally found something other than ring pulls and bullet casings.

Very tarnished. I tried the bicarb & alfoil, then CLR and ended up just manually polishing off the scale with some bicarb.

They were spread out about 30m apart. I've been to this spot maybe 10 times now. I'll be heading back again now.

Some riverside finds.

1927 half penny, a few dollars and some sinkers.

How did a wind up alarm clock come to be buried 500m from any houses?

Visited a small town out from Perth on the weekend.


I figured there might be some coins in the bush between the old race course and the town centre. Some one else had the same idea - there were holes every where.

I got a 1917 Penny and my hunting partner got a Half Penny.


Is that a pigs lower jaw?

I found what turned out to be an part of an antique dog whistle yesterday.

I made up a new brass threaded rod and lock nut ( not quite like the original ones) and now it works again.
I thought the lock ring I found near it was for the whistle, but it was a different thread size.











This is what they should look like;

Just along the river in the sand. It's an open area with lots of traffic going by.

I have found some nice white crows skulls but they were in a different area.
