...And some more Silver from GCF

After yesterday I thought I had to go back and try the same methods/settings
Came away with some more spendable money and a nice pendant

This is a nice size pendant(same size as $2 coin)

GCF produces more Silver

I have not been out in a while so I decided to go out to GCF  for the umpteenth time this morning
I went for some deep detecting,digging all those iffy signals and it turns out it wasn't for nought :)

I am convinced there will be some gold jewellery there as well but as of yet I have just been doing the
higher conductivity stuff as there must be a kazillion pulltab signals there and I have to motivate
myself to go and dig them all to find the possible rings hidden amongst it


A nice chunk of .925 Silver


A lot of junky stuff as I was digging everything above my selected VDI

Some Silver and an Old pocket watch

I have not been out too much lately

So only a few things to show :)



The watch has an inscription and date on the back,I am trying to track down the owner but no luck so far and I don't fancy my chances seeing that he most likely would have been a young lad in the 1940-50s







Two similar Sterling Heart rings in the same week....bizarre :)

Old Damaged Silver :(


  •  Sampson Mordan continued manufacturing pencils and a wide range of silver objects until the Second World war when their factory was bombed.
  • Invented the propelling pencil.
This appears to be a Silver pencil holder from somewhere between 1852- 1910...hallmarks are too worn




Intact it would have looked something like this possibly
