I'll post pics next week. Can't leave all the goodies for nzpoohbear to find.


Hi Tonznz
Can you tell me what scale the numbers go up and down to on the tecnics? On the F4 late pulltabs are around 40-42. Silver 3d-6d 50=53. $1-$2 about 61-68. Brass 80. Gold can read low or high. The scale is 1-100.

Cheers Mike.

Hey Tony.....many thanks for putting these images up and doing the research.
The commemorative Maltese Cross is a stunning find....well done. Personally, I find this kind of thing waaaay more interesting than a bunch of silvers (although still very close to the heart!)..........it's OUR history man!!!.... It says so much about our past and how our Great Great Grandparents and their parents, made this strange new land their home. They were so far from the Motherland yet brought so many reminders with them of that distant shore....... It's soooo important that we don't loose sight of our colonial heritage and these finds of yours Tony, only emphasise that importance.
I can't get enough of this kinda thing...............thank you Tony and keep finding this stuff.

That looks a lot easier than cutting through the kikuyu, and not a pull tab in sight.
