Cleared block across from wesley St "Methodist Church" 1861

Hi all, Been hot here so i have only been out in evenings for a few hours this week.
Driving home from work, Wednesday i spotted a block that has the long grass slashed and it's across from a church.The church was built in 1861.This location is about 700 yards from my place.Nothing like living in area thats has so much history even tho local settlement history only dates to 1835.

i found a 1886 comm of the Wesely Methodist Church, first issue Vegimite jar,pottery bouch,silver spoon [hallmarked], 1922 threepence,half penny english [187?], couple of gun cases and few early shards of english black bottles and period pottery mid 1850's

Here a heeps of pics of church, finds in ground and some cleaned. Enjoy and there still 16 days of hunting left down under.

Remarkable finds, Tinny. What is the thing with the flowers? I was thinking a brooch, but it's big for a brooch. Congrats on your finds.

Tinpan,

Nice finds. I love the Wesely Methodist Church coin. Question about vegimite. Is it as bad as what I have heard? LOL Sorry had to ask.

Your Friend,
