I'M Back from Iraq: Mega Germany Finds Part#1 updated

Hello all,
Well after 14 months in Iraq, I have been back for 2 months. It was tough not being able to detect for such a long time. Pictured below are finds from Germany and even Italy. Still using White's XLT and loving my new set of Predator tools.
Enjoy.

Sorry about the wide photos
The loot.webp The two months of finds, all clad on the top
buttons.webp Close-up of different pins, military buttons, wheat pennies(1919 oldest) and thimble that I found
DSC04466.webp More old buttons, one seems Polish leading me to believe that a Polish unit stayed on this post after the war. The small 1942 coin is from Netherlands, most likely brought back by a German soldier during WWII
DSC04468.webp Different US and German live ammo and silver coins.
DSC04479.webp Buttons, equipment tags and car emblem
Jewelry.webp Bottom: what I think is a gold bracelet found at a sports field(not old) Right: large men's platinum wedding band(I don't think its a in the ear lobe tribal stiyle ear ring), the rest are just junk.
Mil badges.webp Military insignia, buttons. The item in the middle is older and might be some sort of buckle.
other coins.webp Misc older German coins
Silver 1.webp My silver finds and my best find 1806 Austrian, Francis II coin
Silver 2.webp Other side, the 1806 was found walking back to the car in a forest area
Treasure chest.webp Real treasure chest, took the kids to the playground, got a weak signal. I dug out this treasure chest, which had a 1$ and 2 Swiss coin...I felt bad and almost re-buried it.
Ammo.webp Misc ammo, casings and bullets

Glad to see you posting again!

YOU got me started in this hobby with a post and link in a forum at ChevyTalk. It lead me here.

Thanks! Although my '52 chevy wagon restoration scheduled has suffered due to time spent detecting... ::) :D
