Silver ring, George 111 1819 shilling

Post by Giz »

I decided not to detect the land today after the amount of overnight rain, so headed for the beach. The north west wind accompanied with spring tides had unfortunately taken more of the dunes, which now resemble cliffs. No cuts, however quite a number of signals. I made the decision to clean the George 111 shilling, in hindsight the wrong decision ;;z . Did the same with the ring, nice result ::g. The silver ring has no hallmarks and probably came from the path at the top of the dunes/cliffs. Photo 2 resembles a brooch which once had enamelled inlays. what are your thoughts. ta for looking. ::g

Well done. ::g It's always nice to get older stuff on the beach. I've had more Georgian halfpennies on the beach in one month this year than I have in the previous three years. :D
