  1. German Token?

    I found what I believe to be a token (could be a coin but I doubt it) in Luxembourg. The area I found it in dates back to medieval times but has everything in between. It measures around 2 cm in diameter. I think it might be german given how similar the 20 looks compared to other german coins...
  2. ✅ SOLVED Medieval Buckle?

    I found this buckle piece in a field in Luxembourg. Most of the stuff I've found in this area dates to around 1650-1960. Its made of either copper or bronze. I believe it to be medieval, more specifically from 1250-1350 according to this website...

  4. Mystery Chinese Coin

    I found what looks to be a Chinese coin all the way in a field in Luxembourg. It appears to be made of Bronze. I'm assuming it dates to somewhere in the 1800s judging from other Chinese coins I've seen online but I can't be certain. Any help is Appreciated. Thanks!
  5. Possible Fossilised Tooth

    I found this tooth at around 6 inches deep in the middle of the woods (pretty much rules out it being a modern toy) in Southern Luxembourg. It was next to an old creek but nothing else was found at that site other than this. The biggest animals over here are foxes and wild boar and it cant be...

    I found this item in Luxembourg (Western Europe) in an area with stuff from the 1600s-modern times. The top part of bronze or some sort of copper alloy with the bottom part being iron and is very heavy for its size. I have no clue as to what it might be so any help is much appreciated. Thanks!
  7. Awesome 1800s Silver Medallion

    I recently came across a post on Facebook talking about a lost ring. It gave the location of where it was most likely lost so naturally, I went over to go look for it. Sadly the park was way too crowded to hunt in at the moment so I decided to hop on over to the nearest piece of grass I could...
  8. I Think it's a Fossil?

    I found this item 8 inches deep in a metal detecting hole in a park in Luxembourg. I find tons of Devil's toenail fossils (Gryphaea) in the area which are an extinct oyster species but I've never found anything different. Like I said I'm more of a metal detecting guy and know next to nothing...
  9. Odd Looking Handle?

    I found both of these items on separate occasions in the same general area. When I found the first one I didn't think much of it but after finding the second I got curious. Found in Luxembourg in an area that has produced stuff from the 1600s up to modern times. Made of brass or copper except...
  10. I Have No Clue

    Found this item in the woods of Luxembourg. The site has produced a couple of Roman coins but mostly 1700s/1800s/1900s stuff. Appears to be brass as it has a nice green patina. My first thought was a Roman brooch but I have realized that is probably wishful thinking. Any info is appreciated...
  11. Found an Awesome Clay Bottle and a few Coins

    I started the day next to an old creek near my house. I didn't find anything there but I did spot a bottle in the water. The only way to retrieve the bottle was to get wet. The creek was about a foot and a half deep and I was wet for the rest of the day but it was worth it. It turned out to be a...
  12. April in Review

    I had one of my best months ever detecting and even dug a couple bucketlisters. This is not everything, only the better finds. I left all the bag seals and spoon handles in their display cases. A few things I managed to find were as follows Half of a smaller Roman coin (My first Roman coin...
  13. Found a Unique Coin Today But How Should I Clean It?

    I found this coin while exploring a new site next to a creek in the woods near my home. I've identified it to be a liard from Luxembourg dated 1759-1760. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces30723.html The problem is I don't know how I should clean it. Normally I just brush away the surface...
