Yesterday I went to detect an small area close to a farmhouse. I believe that this area I detected on have been some kind of horse field. It was also surrounded by an old and large but short stone hedge. Anyways, I will start with my best find. My best find was a beautiful Swedish copper from 1808 in stunning condition! It is called a 1/4 Skilling and is maybe as large as an us quarter:

I also found an 1800’s bronze knife bolster, which has someone’s initials on it too:

I also found a buckle and two mystery items for identification:

That knife is interesting. Any chance on getting an age estimate?

I believe it is from the early to late 1800’s judging by the other finds that I found and from the font of the signatures letters.
