Relic and Coin Hunting

10/01/2026

Another quick hunt this morning. I cannot wait for winter and cooler weather. But I still found a few nice finds. I like my Freemasons ring, lead soldier and police whistle. And lots of bullet heads and even a musket ball. And lots of other scrap. 😁

Sjoe but it was hot this morning. Managed to sweat it out for a few hours. Lots of scrap. And a few bits and pieces. Always love the lead toys, dog license and name plates. 😁😁

Firstly, Merry Christmas. It's been a busy time with not much hunting. While I wait I decided to clean up some recent finds. It has been building for a while. Some of the items where a surprise.

First was a Chinese coin from 1622 and 2nd was an old Spanish coin. Both were in the scrap bucket. Only recognizable when cleaned. Nice to get another snake buckle and lots of other bits and pieces. Looking fwd to great hunting in 2026. 😁😁

Great to get out again. Short hunt Sat and Sun morning. Lots of fires around. Hoping they open some new areas to hunt. 😍😍

We had a lovely hunt this morning. Nice and cool with some rain. Very happy with my enamel sign, CDF collar badge and snake buckle. 😁😁

Just a quick hunt Sat morning. I can feel summer is coming as I caught a few ticks crawling on me. Found a lovely "love token" 3 pence. With initials engraved on it. And lots of scrap. 😁😁

I put my spade through this lovely relic on Sat morning. I could kick myself. Using Grok I enhanced and fixed it. What do u think? 😁

Had a nice hunt this morning. Starting to get hot in the bush. And those damn horse flies bite like crazy. But it was good exercise with a few lovely relics.

Great printers plate, binoculars, penny and a lovely badge. 😁😁

Finally got out for a hunt this morning. Scrap was plentiful. Lots of lead and brass.

And a few relics. A nice "nurses" broach and a "REMEMBER " broach. Lots of digging and great exercise. 👍👍

I cleaned up some recent finds. The printers plates are a fantastic glimpse into Victorian times. I reversed each printers plate image so you can read them. A window into days gone bye. I also liked the Boys Brigade outer buckle and the friction tube for the British 18 pounder cannon used in the Boer War.

If anyone has any idea what the contraption is for the plate that has "wood" on it, pls post in comments. Cheers

It was great to get out and hunt this morning. We have not been out much lately. Glad to see that there are still plenty relics around. Some nice printers plates, Boys Brigade buckle, penny and lots of bits and pieces. 😁

My favourite finds from the Annual hunt competition. Love the Prince Alfred Guard cap badge. It earned me 2nd place. Also a nice King Edward VII coronation and a Kaiser Willhelm pendant. 😁😁
