60+ Coins - Gold - Silver And Lots More Take A L@@K

[fishy]

Hi all,

Not been on much lately, working or detecting

This is the result of the last two beach trips before cleaning.



While at the beach I noticed a low spot and found the small bits top left, a natural collection point

A gold butterfly ear ring, a silver hall marked .925 ear ring, old cuff link, silver bracelet, old nappie pins, back off a brass pocket watch, maybe an old hair pin? and other bits.
Rest of my finds were mainly within my hot spot area which I go over every time I go and always find more stuff.

I chucked some of my finds into my homemade tumbler.

This was an odd find.
Some spent cases that look like they were put back into a holder of some type?
They were entombed in some black crud, I didnt break it open as they would have fallen apart.





Thanks for looking

Nice one..that lot kept you busy

Hello mate, the cartridges are in a charger clip, that used to fit in a couple of groves in a Lee Enfield rifle, you would press them down to charge the magazine, somebody has put the fired ones back in

Cheers Dave,

To be honest they were hard work.

They give a cracking signal but take some bleeding digging up from the depths.

Nice finds Fishy. The 50cals and 20mms have cleaned up very well.

As for your Lee-Enfield charger clip, I to have found them filled with spent cases and always assume it is one of the soldiers messing about due to boredom and a lull in the 'practice'.

Here is a complete one for you to compare to yours

The clip of five rounds may come up well with an acid dip Thats what we cleaned our airfield ammo mainly 50 cal , back in the school days , b;> over 30 years ago.

Thanks RRPG

Not a jews harp have few of those. Will get a better pic tomorrow.

Can anyone confirm what this might be?

Maybe an old hair pin? Seems a bit heavy duty?

[fishy]

Bump for the brass prong thing

Hi there, just wondering if that is a live .303 round I see amongst all those finds?
