Still digging my yard and hit this good sized target that looked like a chunk of concrete when I pulled it out. I was shaking my head as to why it was making my machine go mad. Afted tapping some of the junk off...an axe head. Probably not too old, but the hole was still chirping and another inch or too down was this 1917 M(elbourne) Australian One Shilling piece, 92.5% silver, works for me.
