"Que O'Hoy" importer and exporter 1854-1964 reilic and coins

Hi all, Got back yesterday and went to the site of a local chiness import and export shop.There nothing left of the structure except some footings and the lot is used a parking lot.The block is not a parking lot but locals park on it to avoid paying parking fees . ;D ;D ;D.Yesterday was a holiday and the block was empty, so i mded as much as possible,I will go back when the block in empty again in the future.The O,Hoy family ran a export shop on this site  for 111 years and there also signs that some sort of camp was there before.

Here's a bit of history i did find out [link]

      http://chia.chinesemuseum.com.au/biogs/CH01012b.htm

Well did find a couple of English coppers 1877,189!,copper Straits Settlement 187! [Singapore] Some small medicine bottle and a few What is it"s and a bit of pottery,the best find was the usuall small Australain silver 3d's 1925, 1927.Thanks for looking and pic too
