Managed a few hours after work. Ended up with a George silver 3p. Sixpence. Few 2p's. Few 20p's. Junk ring. Bullets and a token that I can't find any info on.

Hi Tomo, I think slowsweep is on the money, probably a military 'outfitter' of the first world war period.
Glad to see the Excaliber's showing promise on it's first trial run. ::g Cheers

I initially thought that. Various military items do pop up from that part of the beach, bullets, buttons, medals etc
