    You found Antique?I didnt know you visited Panay(think about it).Right,it doesnt look like an Egyptian scarab,what it does look like is an old crotal bell,I have found several similar though not in as good a condition as that Pen,maybe its part of Yamashitas Gold Metal detectors in Pinas?I took mine a few years ago to check out an old japanese or rather rumoured japanese WW2 camp in the boonies,found nothing but flakes of rust



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    You're right Tawi! It's a bell but the middle thing was melted when we found it. It doesn't ring anymore. Can I borrow your metal detector?

    No it's not a granade look. It's a bell with picture of Anito Gods.

    Wait till the antique roadshow comes to Newcastle,show them the bell and tell them you found it on Holy-island,that will throw a spanner in the works for local historians and have them scratching their collective heads
