Beach area - 20 minute hunt @ noon
All my finds:
Well I did not find much as I was a bit rushed this time. I found out that my physio was at 2:00 not 1:30! So I went for a little detect at the local beach.
1953 Sixpence
Well I am certainly not used to seeing one of these in this mint condition! Usually they are all covered up in grime and look like an old copper coin, but this one still has some of that new coin shine! At first I thought that i found a silver one but I think that this one is almost as good.
1996 Ten Cent
I don't usually get excited by a ten cent piece but then again I have never found one in as good condition as this one is! It is almost like it was just dropped yesterday. And even is still silvery. I do like the old decimal coinage better than our current one as the new ones rust and are magnetic! And when I am out detecting I notch out iron so I don't pick them up!!!
Good to see another kiwi md blog pop up :) You'll have a few more followers from around NZ in no time ;) HH!
