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.

Very nice finds. I love seeing finds from other countries. ;D So interesting. THose are some old coins. The one bullet you have standing up. I have found a lot of those at the White Sands Missle Range in New Mexico. THere is a military base where they test all kinds of weapons, rockets, etc.

YOu are off to a good start with detecting. Keep us posted of your finds. :)

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

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:

Thank you from the info :), yes this is the coin.
