Walked for miles at the beach for little return but managed a 925 pendant
in a park on Friday. Silver saved the day again.

Wow,
I'm getting more and more persuaded to spend up on a detector by the post.
The best I have managed so far is a 1934 Shilling that luckily fell out of a aircon duct I was removing on a demolition site.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your finds
enjoy your hunts
- Tom
