Some nice silver coins
We stayed at Waihi for a night,lots of old houses here with untouched back yards,just itching to be detected on.I spent a bit of time at an old park an came up with the old silver coins and a few pennys,strange thing is that the pennys don't match the years of the silver coins,I suspect there may have been a fair here in the early days,the ground has been turned over at some stage and all the coins were well spread out,I initially thought the ring was a goodie but a quick clean changed that,all the silver coins cleaned up real well as can be seen.

ReplyDeleteAnother good day for you Jim :)
ReplyDeleteKnow what you mean about Waihi, I've drooled a few times when driving through. Nice silvers esp the English ones!
ReplyDeleteYip they all cleaned up pretty good,and I managed not to damage any this time....hehe
ReplyDeleteMy Dad lived in Waihi... I got to detect the park twice before he moved away.. found my first Victorian penny there. Dad recons there is a local that he used to see detecting the park, but I was finding things pretty easily. Didnt have the etrac then, would be neat to try it again.
ReplyDeleteAll of these coins are looking fantastic thanks for the sharing.
