Rise of the Irish-Catholic farmers

[tinpan]

HI members, been a while, over the last few months I've been mding farm sites in the Western Wheatbelt. Settled by free Irish settlers in 1840's Land Grants payed for by the Irish Relief Fund. two coin spools, one pre 1850, the other is post WWII and an amazing fob watch chain fireman's medal from 1910 and other assorted bucket-list items. Detector used GPX 4500 with mono 16inch coil. Thanks for looking.

Hi only posted the silver coins. The pre 1850, includes Geo 111 Geo IV and the rest Vickies. Shame thier black from fire damage Tp

Nice little group.
Without checking the backmark of the Livery Button, I think it just pre-dates 1850, as most are circa 1830s.

What interests me the most is the cannon, because if the books are right its going to be your oldest find in that group, if the books are wrong then they continued making that style into the 19th C.

so many quality finds TP you've done well at the sites. The cannon and fob seal are outstanding as the button and watch winder. What yr does the sterling knife blade date to?
