Bottom of a mullock heap.
Hi everyone,
On Friday I found this old cast iron pulley at the bottom of a large mullock heap, it was in about 2 feet
I am very surprised that no one else has found it. There were a few detector holes near by. Does any one know if it's worth anything?
There are no markings on it.
Thanks Ren.

It's worth something to you. You found it! Nice old casting work, in good nick too! May have been a hangman's pulley?

Ren,
Would have hauled a few buckets of Gold laden wash in its day. Nice relic - bit of old history.

Ren I wonder how many ounces of gold it helped to bring up to the surface mate. You are holding history in your hands and it looks like it still could be in working order.

Thanks guys for responding, It certainly does hold a lot of history only if the pulley could talk I bet it would have some ripper story's to tell
I'll stick it on the garage wall next to the horse shoe I found years ago!
Thanks Ren
