Fantastic, I'd have been over the moon with that lot. As good as the gold ring is as a find, that little coin spill with so much sterling silver in it would have made my year. Thanks for sharing



My greatest fear is that when I die my wife will sell my collection for what I told her it cost me.

Nice finds Metalkiwi. A chunky GOLD ring would make my year too. They are not easily come by. Ive found about 28 rings from memory and only one was GOLD.
