So its my 101 post. Im happy :D. Just getting know this hobby and all you treasure hunters. After 4 months of metaldetecting im sure that Im seriously addicted to this thing, theres no returning back. I just love the sound of my dedector, now when I have better knowledge about it. Its so thrilling to dig up some good signal when you are almost sure that there is something cool burrided under that surface.

These finds maybe my best one today, cause I have digged em in last two days. There was this beach that I searched before, I did dedect it another time and IT did bring my first GOLD! Theres two rings where I can found markings for gold, Im happy.

But most important for me is that oldest coin, its from 1680 or 1660, can you guys make it out? But its my oldest. Its in bad shape but still.. What a feeling it was to take it to my hands from 30 cm deep, under a rock. I will find older.. I will find a true treasure :D

And found over 100 coins, oldest that one from the 1800. FOund different relics, all not displayed in pics, bullets and lots of stuff. Then that little medalliong?, can you help me with that and that old coin, is it Russian? theres R and C letters on it and 3 crowns?

here comes the pics, 13 of them.

EXCELLENT WORK!!!!! It just goes to prove that all that ''glitters'' is ''not always gold''. Nice job on the personal items.

I believe this old coin is from Sweden (because of those three crowns)

I agree with Kadari, and I think it may be a 1/6 ore copper struck at the mint in Avesta, Sweden. If so, it should be about 24mm or 15/16" in diameter.

Of course, it would help to see the other side. If it's a 1680 1/6 ore, there should be a crown at the top, with "1/6" on the left and "OR" on the right; and beneath that, a rampant lion with "s" on the left and "m" on the right.

Here's one dated 1671:

Nice finds, especially like the moto goose badge. Nice bikes, even if they are italian. lol does the pendant say Maria Theresia By the Grace of God Regent of Hungeoh. Could that be Hungary, I would expect to see Magyar. Oh I see Maria Theresa (Vienna, May 13,1717 Only ruling Empress of the Habsburg and queen of Hungary and Bohemia and ruler of other territories from 1740 to her death. Hope this helps. Stan...
