Nice finds Tinpan - I see you found a shell from when they used to go hunting mosquitoes from down your way.

Very neat finds. Those sugar nips/tongs are cool....any markings on them? And the little leaf is sweet.

Your dead right gypsy,the nips are damaged by bad ground but are stirling silver and english.Can you smell silver from 10,000 miles away 

                      t.p really hard to get completely clean
