I hunted twice this week or about 3 hours. Monday was an awesome day with blue skies, sun and 55F/13C. Tuesday was cloudy with rain/snow flurries mixed, lots of wind so I had to bag the detector but had to quit as the weather was getting the best of me, still found a few interesting finds! Here are a few finds, left looks like a candle snuffer and is missing a small piece, 2 musket balls, a piece of a thimble, what I thought was a bronze age ring but may be a tractor part and has hash marks on the outer middle, a small shoe buckle that might date to the 1600s.
I think this is an octagonal coin, 17mm in diameter. I have found a few octagonal Regensburg Hellers and they are smaller than this, they were minted through most of the 1700s. There is a small part of stamping visible at the top.
A square copper religious medallion, no idea what it says or who the image is at the moment.
Obverse of a copper 1812 Quarter Kreuzer, reads ?1 Viertel Kreuzer?
Reverse of the 1812, date is at the 0900 and 0300 positions with a coat of arms and a crown on top.
Obverse of a 1750 copper two Pfenning coin, the two is two II and not the figure 2.
Reverse of the 1750, not sure what the initials are, crown at the top.
Found this a few weeks ago while moving some equipment racks, I think it is a marksmanship badge from the Russian army, the backing is aluminum and there are no stamps on the badge. They look like crossed AK-47s. The Tank and Bradley simulation site where I work in Germany has played host too many nations of armies and it has been a lot of fun watching the different nationalities come through the site. HH all, Mike
