Title: bits n bobs Post by: Andre on November 24, 2017, 10:20:09 PM hi all, been on my permission yesterday and after battling with the wind and the rain and my wellies getting stuck in boggy soil,i managed to find this items.One of them looks like the back of old tweezers,the silver button is made of copper with silver on top
and that ornate chunk of copper,i have no idea.All came of about the same square meter... Title: Re: bits n bobs Post by: Val Beechey on November 24, 2017, 11:06:39 PM Well done on getting out, not many have in the weather we’ve had lately.
The ‘old tweezers’ is a split pin. And the last pic looks like part of a key or handle plate. That would have been a nice and expensive button when new. It’s always nice to find a thimble. Thanks for posting.

What sort of depths were you recovering your targets from? Chris :) Title: Re: bits n bobs Post by: Andre on November 25, 2017, 10:32:49 PM True mate,some of the targets my probe would disappear,about a foot?i’ve been over this areas before and surely missed these targets.i am using an elliptical coil but ordered a double d detech ultimate 13” to attack the soil on a different angle,see what happens..,
