Goldfields find from Victoria, Australia

Thought some of the members might be interested in this. Found this old rifle whilst out detecting in the goldfields of central Victoria, Australia, last weekend. Appears to be a Martini-Henry rifle, however it is too rusted to get any markings off it. It is a breech-loader like the Martini and appears to be of a similar caliber. Manufactured between 1871-1889.
