Went detecting and caught a FISH!

[Dignitup]

Back to the old church again today and got a 45 wheat, 4 clad lincs, a clad dime, a couple dont knows, a 1/4 teaspoon spoon and a 6 inch fish made of brass. I broke what i think is suppose to be a wave off the bottom of the fish. Anyone ever seen a fish like this before?
