Had a great detecting week end. The harvest is in the full speed so more fields get accessible every day.

The best find was without a doubt my very first Fugio cent. To be honest it wasn't really on my bucket list as I never though of finding one in Canada.
It's not in the top shape but I'm still pretty happy with the condition as other coins in the area didn't survive that well.

An other great find was a Connecticut copper 1786 (4.1-G) Second one this month.

Than my favorite military find of the week end. My first US Artillery button 1812

An unusual relic and my only silver find this week end. Didn't think much of it when I've found it, but still left it in my car. Latter on checked it again and noticed the STERLING mark. Not sure if it's from a walking cane or part of a powder flask.

Dang ! That's all you got ? pathetic ! ( not really) Is the open end on the silver piece large enough to accomodate a walking stick/cane ? Are there any known powder flasks made of sterling silver ? Great finds !!

I'm not really sure what it is. Could be from a parasol. There's some rust inside, so I suspect it had an iron center.

Holy smokes, those are some amazing old finds. Way to freaking go. That is awesome. Good there's some old silver in those neck of the woods for you too!

Thanks. It wouldn't be bad if some old silver coins showed up, but silver relics are good as well.

Amazing, I'm willing to bet that the silver thing is an umbrella handle or something

Yes I thought of possibly a parasol, hard to say for sure.
