Here is this weeks photo.... Not much has happened except there are specks of dirt on the flat coin, and a certain amount of ground erosion surrounding the coins... other than that little has changed.

I see the stick is weathering also some now Grin

Sorry Karl, your eyes are fooling you.... Shocked

what I do is place the two photos together on the screen at the same time and compare them, that way I can see if there is any movement..... But nothing No no!

You know something, AU? That would make a great contest to have a pool to see who can guess the exact amount of days it takes to completely go under the soil. The winner would get the coins! Historical coins used in the first ever "watch the grass grow" study.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

The trouble is that it may take years to get a winner. Like this one:
