First finds since joining

[ShadowPilot]

Hey all,

Well, since joining I've mainly been working.  I managed a few hours this evening along with my friend with the vintage army mine detector.

Here are the finds.



A 2002 20p, 2005 £1, a gate bolt, what looks to be a hook off a rake, a large horse shoe and a small pony shoe.

Nothing very exciting, but to be honest we were quite excited to get the pony shoe.  My mate and I love the local history and we have extrapolated that this shoe would most likely be off a pit pony.

Good fun but now we need to get ourselves a decent discriminator.

Cheers all.

Well at least you found something.

Might have been a pony for a trap rather than a Pit pony.  They were the main source of transport well into the early 1900's

Nice finds SP. Never mind how old the finds are its plain to see your enjoying being out there searching and rescuing otherwise lost treasure.
Well done buddy, looking forward to seeing more of your finds in future searches.
