Tried the Auckland Park again after finding a number of old pennys. As Chris (Metal Kiwi) said where there is copper, there will be silver.
He was right!
As well as finding quite a bit of scrap aluminium, copper wire and the dreaded pull tabs I also found NZ Pennys - 1 x 1950, 1 x 1960 a NZ Halfpenny 1963 and a 1963 sixpence which looked like copper?
Much to my delight the Xterra 705 also turned up two silvers:
1942 Silver Threepence (my first)
1933 Silver sixpence (my first)
Thanks Chris for your advice.
Those 2 silvers are in great condition Kevin.
