Welcome to the forum Dannyboy,Nice finds from over the pond you have there.I'm really digging the skull & cross bone piece that's cool as it get's.
Take care,
Pete,
As to gold, every gold item my son's Teknetics & my Bounty Hunter have found has been mixed in or underneath pieces of metallic junk. None of our gold has been sweetly alone waiting for us, lol. You're probably already working the trashy junk areas, but if not, maybe gold's waiting for you there. Have Fun! Andi
