Metal Detecting

Dropped hubby off at archery and headed straight for the beach across the road. Spent a very pleasant few hours wandering and finding a few odds and sods:

Well done on your beach trip.

I think i can spy a pound coin there so not a wasted journey. I like the corner piece too, nice and intricate.

Yes mate £1.20 to be precise plus a 1913 George v ha'penny

I see your learning that machine quite well, I'm gonna have to nick your battery's so it gives me chance to find summit. Spoke to Jeff who was down with the two boys and said you were down the other end finding all the gold
Corner piece is quite ornate, wonder what that's off

Nice one. A nice old penny is always a good sign, im sure if there are old pennies about then other old coins are sure to be knocking about too, possibly gold (at least thats what i tell myself)

Never saw Jeff - head was down and sunglasses were on yeah I like the corner thing - looks like its been on furniture or perhaps an old (gold carrying) chest?
