This week I got out 3 times- There are not many fields open now, so mI decided to go to corn field to look between rows of plants. About 3 hours time was enough to stop this torture, but I found few things - couple of tin bronse buttons_ surprisingly were very similar. 2 coins of total 3 I found by eyes.

One of the eyeball finds - copper 1/4 kreuzer from 1831.

Next hunt was on the one of the first plowed fields which I detected before with my old detector and thought it is empty. However, some mostly 20 century coins were found.

Mini- buckle, preliminary dating is 1350-1650 (Folkert may have another opinion?)

On Sunday I visited the field which I finally was permitted by owner to hunt and which produced before one roman coin dated 310AD and some german silver from 1700s-1800s. This time no spectacular coins but other relics are nice.

Key from pocket watches, late 1800s-early 1900s

French Infantery button with number 5, in bad condition but the fact of finding it here is interesting, it is already third button of Napoleon army I found here.

That field is not plowed yet, only cut, so the coil of MD was quite high above ground, and I hope more finds will come soon.

Thanks for viewing and HH

Wow, very nice finds, when that corn is down and plowed in, I'd hit that field a few more times.

I did it already more than 10 times, and it is always gave up interesting relics
 

Nice assortment you've got there!

I wonder if there's any gold in that location.


Congratulations!
