Germany Finds (Part 19) Last Finds, 2007 IN REVIEW and helmets (a great year)

[88irocarmy]

Hello all
Well this concludes my first year of metal detecting. It was a great year and I wish I have picked up the hobby earlier. Being in Germany has added even more to the adventure. Recent cold weather has made it difficult to dig in the frozen dirt, its hard just to sit home.
I'm really happy with the White's XLT and would recommend it to anyone. As for pin pointer the Virba Probe has been a winner.

The following picture of finds (sorted) are a review of the finds from 2007...enjoy.

Last finds of the year(part19) some clad, cross and unit crest.


Unit crests, insignia, badges


Die cast cars (sorry kids) and alot of ammo brass


Ammo, musket balls, grenade parts, stripper clips and other hardware


Buttons (mostly military) old and new


Keys, Keys (returned some to housing office)


My more precious pieces, silver coins, old coins, gold, lead seal, lead soldiers and WWII ID tags


Sliver coins, ID tags and lead seals


Jewelry, fake and real NOT SHOWN 1 High School ring returned to Maine and two wedding rings returned to owners


Clad and Euro..did not have time to count (a couple thousand pieces) those piles are 2 inches deep and that tray weights around 40 pounds.


Misc coins, US, French, British, Wheat, Nazi, old and new.


Non-MD..the head Sergeant Major at my unit had theses helmets in a storage room that he received many years ago from a German soldier, he passed them to me. They need some TLC



So there you go hope 2008 is your year>>>

WOW! NICE FIRST YEAR MAN! Its kewl you returned the rings also! I put up signs when I was on base letting people know I could help them find lost jewelry. It gave me good areas where others might have lost jewelry and helped out others too! Just an Idea!

Great year of finds. I lived in Baumholder & Manhiem (?) FOR 5 YEARS BACK IN THE 1970'S AND NEVER HAD A DETECTOR. I had sever chances to get a German WW II Helment, but other things got in the way. I hope you have continued success with your hunting Military bases. I really enjoy your posts. Thanks for the memories. I wish you would take a camera with you and show the areas you have to hunt for 2008. Thanks...Jesse.
