Title: My Wookey finds, plus a few unknowns to me .... Post by: sharkey on March 25, 2013, 05:10:27 PM here are my finds from the Wookey Rally. had a very good day, meeting new people and getting even more valuable experience with the ace250. brought a few tonnes of Wookey mud home too ;D
any ideas on the M shape , pratts thing (i think this is trying to tell me something!) and finally the stumpy bullet thingy. thanks in advance and a big thanks to the Rally organisers, and also to Little_bro for transporting me to and from the dig. coins are 1913 and 1964 Sharkey Title: Re: My Wookey finds, plus a few unknowns to me ....
