Only had one hunt this month as i'm mad busy at work, but I found myself some gold

Few pre decimal coins






A bullet



And...A GOLD RING





If anyone could give me a date and place of manufacture from the hallmarks that would be great I'm no good with them!

Thanks for looking

Turner & Simpson. Chester ? Don;t know if that is P or R at the end. That should give a date.

This is one made in Birmingham, so you can see the resemblance.

Chester 1915. and in case you cared, it's 9ct gold.

& the T&S Symbol probably stands for EJ Trevitt & Sons

Oh brilliant x-plore I,m so jealous, but very pleased for you. Bet you couldn't believe it when you dug that up. So There are still treasures in the ground, I was beginning to give up. Not been out myself for ages. You've inspired me again, great stuff...

Great find x-plore.Thanks for sharing.
When you out on your metal detecting Cools?

We do look forward to looking at your finds also.x

You are correct.

I don't find anything worth showing Snowy. I am going to join a metal detecting club though and hopefully go out with them on some digs, maybe get something then.

So much for my theory. I thought the symbol looked like Y from 1847 lol.

Well done ,thanks for posting.

Wow thanks for the response, ID's and links everyone

100 years old this year

It clearly says that T & S is Turner and Simpson on the link relating to the medallion. They had places in Chester, Birmingham and London.
How did T & S (Turner and Simpson ) become E J Trevitt & sons ?

Ha ha ! I get it now. Sorry.

We do well between us, don't we Venice ?

looking forward to seeing some of your finds Cools xx

Me too! Get them up cools!

Well certainly this year Ive been thinking I need a new pointed 'D' hat -- my brain's acting like its on a permanent go slow!

It could of been made anywhere! it was assayed in Birmingham

you sure? assay mark clearly is a Chester one...

My mistake! I was pointing out articles could be made anywhere and only a couple of places can proof them.
