Unfortunately was'nt us in our recent visit.

Unfortunately you or I could have walked over this horde, Why you ask....

Some years ago I took some friends to an old Gold fields town site, it was just a farmers field, many operators had detected here in the past as well as clubs, I found a 1d, Gold finger a mate found a groat and he yelled out to his son to come over and detect near us.

Well within 10 mins sons son showed me 10 Chinese coins, then 22 , then 45 and I watched him, partner and mum dig up 188 coins, he said he picked up/detected one coin outside the pile and the pile of coins was just like a buried piece of tin.... so easy to walk away from.

I was told that Bevs brother purchased the Nox 800 from Coiltek. The find was thought to be around Dunolly but i was told Goldsborough which is a little North.
I have the pictures of the coins, 12 Sovs and 2 Halfs.
No idea how to put up a picture here now. ( iPad) Good to see the forum hasn’t changed over to Tappatalk.

Davgold email button comes up with Send Text only and Davgold has no email option for a member contact.
