Title: NWDD club dig finds august 14th --- sharkey Post by: sharkey on August 14, 2016, 07:10:27 PM hi all here are my finds for today, lots of signals and a very good day out ;D thanks so much to dungbeetle for arranging it. 8)
lots of ha'pennies, including a napoleon one. a few wafer thin silver strips (from walking canes?) 1922 sixpence and spindle whorl. also a clay pipe piece (MarcB) which was sharing a hole with one of the georgian looking coins. does anyone have an idea of what the big lead disc was used for? i did think some sort of cog, but too soft surely. then thought button? surely too big though? also does anyone know what the T RGA badge represents? and finally any idea on the object to the left of the said badge? thanks all sharkey Title: Re: NWDD club dig finds august 14th --- sharkey Post by: mister T on August 14, 2016, 07:24:16 PM Great day there andy
