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  Grin

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

The "Pratts" is the top of an old oil can, believe it or not very collectable, though Pratts is probably the commonest of them.

the foil notch has been left ON since seeing your hammereds! and my tactic yesterday was to detect the wet areas of the stubble fields, in the hope of the masses of people favouring the drier pasture areas and leaving me some coins..... turns out my best finds were from the pasture  Huh
