Nice coin! The variety of finds at the lady is amazing...now if someone can explain how a 1928 Spanish coin ended up there?

wow, that half shilling sure is interesting. I wonder why it was cut (looks like in half) ... and where is the other half!

Hi all, Erick and myself decided to do a afternoon hunt at Lady Selborn today, My hunt started off bad after i damaged ny first find of the day a 1948 bicycle lisence. after that i managed to find one coin a 1949 1/4 penny, a 1960 flower design bicycle lisence, a spring bok, a old spoon and what appears to be a small flask thingy that is flattend. Erick had a blast he found a couple of nice badges and small ornaments in one hole. we think someone dumped it there years ago. i hope he will post his finds.

Cheers and Happy Hunting :)

Interesting and nice finds ! The Lady continues to deliver the goods.
My favourite pastime is walking on the beach and poking dead things with a stick.
