I dug this brass object in an old farm that dates back to the 1700s. Its about 2" , has two small pins and a ring. Looks like a moving part from something. Any ideas?
Hello folks!
Was super happy with this 50 cent sterling ww2 pin I found at the thrift store today. I looked on ebay, and it's going for around 40-60 dollars. Not sure if I could get that for it. But still cool.
Need some advice about this possible sterling spoon. There is markings on the back...
Hello all,
I recently found a box of civil war bullets in an abandoned house that was being torn down. Most were obvious enough to know what they were when I saw them. My question is about the two on the right in the bottom row. I'm guessing that the farthest right on the bottom row is a musket...

Can anyone help identify this? Dug on an early colonial to victorian era site. It's thin brass. Looks like a hinge of some sort. Has small holes where small brass nails may have been? Thanks
Found while gold panning on a river/creek without any early mining records. Could not find a matching example online? Vid i posted on you tube shortly after finding. Little on the history of area in vid details and links.
I can only dream of having something like this on my property

Had an awesome beach hunt for low tide I posted early in todays finds and during high tide I went to one of my favorite local parks that puts out relics and silver
I don't get on here much, but I would like to share some of my better finds from the past few months.
I mostly try and target Civil War sites or older.
I'm in Cabarrus county NC, but travel all over to dig. I would like to find a digging buddy somewhat close by.

This was a hunt 1 month ago. 2 bucket list day for me. Same spot where I got the buttons on my previous post. This has just been an amazing spot. I am quite proud as I have taught myself to dig in heavy iron with my Equinox 800. I went to a silversmith to see if I can get the wings unfolded. She...
Hello! Been a long, long while since I've posted...does anyone even remember me??? Lol haha. Anyways...I've been doing more yard sale hunting/re-selling then detecting this year. Made some killer finds and big chunk a change.
Only detected a few times this year which I now regret. Will be going...
Hello from the Deschutes River. My crew and I like to clean up the river one or twice a week and pull out all sort of things, like old bottles, logging equipment, plastic, clothes, but we do find the occasional treasure. My buddy Jarrod found a 1930s Old Spice after shave lotion bottle. Half of...
This coin appears to be very old, it is very thin and uneven.
The image is almost cartoon like which is weird to me...
I can only make out some of the letters or symbols on it so I am not going to write them out as it would just be a string of random letters in not particular order.

From the pictures you can see some of the designs and with this little piece excites me. Talk about fancy! It came from the ground green, so it’s likely copper (or mostly so). On this property I’ve also found two WWI-era buttons and two pennies from 1887 and 1914, as well as a whole lot of...
I found this item in a field in Luxembourg where I have found stuff from the 1600s - modern times.
It appears to be made of copper.
The bottom makes it look as if it had broken off of something else but I'm not 100%
Any info is appreciated as I have no clue.
Thanks!
what kind of button do you call this? And what time period is it from? It’s probably an easy ID for someone. But this is only my second button I’ve ever dug. I’m sure during my incubation period I’ll have some pretty easy things to ID. But I promise I only need you guys to do it once. I have...
I found this item in Luxembourg (Western Europe.)
It is made of either copper with the knob being made out of iron.
I have found other items dating back to the 1600s in the area as well as everything up to modern times.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank You.
