Hello! I need help figuring out if this rock is anything. I found it somewhere in West Virginia and there are scratches all around it that look deliberately carved and unnatural. Was this a sharpening tool or something else? Thank you!

Howdy, I found this little thing all bent up at an 1870s house. It reads "5 Burnett" on one side and the back is blank. A little bit of searching on google and a token website produced nothing but I think one of you guys will probably recognize it. Any thoughts or opinions are appreciated!

Hi, I found this stone tool(presumably) about 200ft from the Tennessee River, near Decatur, Alabama. This is my third attempt at seeking out someone who has seen a tool of this particular shape/size & who has some knowledge of what its intended purpose was. Judging by what appear to be finger...

Hello, if you're reading this you might be able to help me, and for even trying I thank you. This story started around 20 years ago when I was still a boy.

Hello, I found this kettle set the other day with a makers mark on the bottom of it. I believe it may be Russian but I'm not completely sure. I'm really having a hard time finding out anything about it so if anyone could look at it and let me know if you have any ideas it would be much...

Hello everyone! Happy Friday! I had a chance to do some detecting today at a very early house site. The site is on 1872 and 1883 maps. There were not many maps made of the aria but I know the house is atleast 1850s or older! The house is mostly gone exept for a perimiter wall and a bunch of...

Authentic? or REPO?

I know its a British doughboy, but I don't recognize the marking. Could anyone tell me what it is?

Dug this on a old military ammunition depot. Dates back to early 1900's and possibly older. In the shield under the sabers is the number 8. Thanks for any help.

Brass top. Rolled bottom sides with rolled edges have a stopper.

I found this in a cemetary or near a lake, can't remember which it was sorry! It is heavy and seems to have a band all around the edges but looks like a seam? I think it's magnetic and thought it might also be petrified bone? Looks to have crystal or shiny gritty flakes. Was hoping it was able...

Hi all, first post on here but had an exciting first day back from the winter. I'm living in Bavaria Germany and pulled this out of a field near my house. It's definitely handmade, heavy. Any thoughts? Maybe a small pommel of sorts? Thanks!

Hey all, I recently found out about an old Civil War hospital site back in the woods near my town. It's now just a pile of bricks, but I found LOTS of glass and some iron, and possibly a button. I asked a metal detectorist friend once what the white porcelain fragments are and he said "a good...

Hey all! I recently came across a seller that is getting rid of this lot of WWII paraphernalia. I know that the white cloth with the eagle is a swatch from a Luftwaffe sport vest, and the cross medallion is a US marksman's medal, but I can't seem to find any info on any of the others. I only...

I have had this for a while now, I can't even remember where it came from. But I have no idea what it is. Any ideas? It's about 2" by 1" and has a lot of detail in the lines etc.

Hi All! so, I'm new to this site. I normally don't talk with people online, but I'm at a loss and figure other coin collectors have got to be fun people! :thumbsup: So, I came across a penny while going through my coins. now, its a wheat penny and the year says -- 19 but the 2 is upside down...
