My hunting buddy couldn't go today so I drove 30 miles to one of our CW sites that we have hunted many times. I thought the owner would have livestock in the field but I was wrong. I almost came back because the grass was so high but I'm glad I didn't. Sense I had come so far I decided to give it a try and focus on the thin spots. The grass forced me to go slow and it paid off. I found eight bullets to include three 69cal, three 58, one Prussian and a round ball. Also found some melt and this out of place coin. It's an Australian 2 Groschen. It's in bad shape so I'll also post an example. This is the second out of place coin I've found while hunting CW ground. The first was a 1941 Japanese 10sen. Just goes to show you can find anything, anywhere.
Thanks for looking

Nice finds. I usually will find a foreign coin near cw sites. Mostly WW2 era. I think kids played with them and lost them.

....Near a Stage or Rail route ?
Fun Finds !
No stage or rail, but near a road in a mountain pass. Wish it was in better shape so I could date it. I think they started in the 50s
