We met yesterday with a few hunting buddies in a wooded area near the rhine. You can expect everything from roman to modern there. And this day was a good one! Some of us went downhill into a valley which had seen lots of roman activity, but four of us decided to stay on top near an old road. We started with a few musketballs, but we got more and more over the whole area. Looks like a 1800s skirmish there. We ended with 10 to 20 bullets each, but no regiment buttons :( . We had a few nails, a roman circular mount, crotal bell and some coins as we worked up the hill. The highest point of the hill was littered with WWII crap, but i managed between tent buttons, casings, a pack of razorblades and a pioneer axe the best find of the day. A beautiful gold plated brass spur dated 12th-13th century :hello2: . The two buttons i found may be around 1600. The coins are 1800.
Im pretty sure that we go back to this place soon as our fields are all planted....

Great finds!
Looked like you had a dog tag in a picture. If so, You gonna clean it up?
I would love to see that.
Sorry, no dogtag... its just a pack of razor blades... You can be sure that i would clean up a dogtag and try to find the owner or relatives to send it home!
