Just had a short session in a local wood. The floor of this small wood, is completely covered in ivy. Just went really for a nice relaxing stroll, in the dappled woodland light. Here's some pictures of the finds. Robert.

Thats a nice place to detect! So the rain stopped?
 
Ivy, ugh! Hate that stuff. You did well, none-the-less robfinds.
 
Davey Crocket Great finds I wish I could detect over there. and live in a castle had to throw that in
 
I was a big fan of Davey Crockett when I was a kid.
Congrats on some nice finds.
 
That's a heavenly place to stroll through, even better when digging up cool old things
 
I love forests with little to no underbrush!! Is much nicer to walk/hike rather than having to hack your way through downed trees and brambles.

@Tuberale - Do you have "poison ivy" or "all ivy"?

Mostly I meant English ivy. But we also have poison ivy. Also Poison oak and poison sumac.
 
We've got all but the English stuff. The wife hates me cause I'm not allergic to the poison stuff. :laughing7:
 
Nice finds! Looks like you weren't the only one that liked to walk in the woods, somebody left a trail of goodies for ya!

We have all types of ivy. Being allergic to the poisonous kind, i can't romp in it. I'm not quite over my last encounter with the oak kind.
The english ivy is very pervasive here.....you guys aren't planning another invasion are you? :what::D

Got 2 types of thistle here. Hey, do you guys have anything there called "Stinging Nettle"?? Got it here. Burns like HECK if you even brush up against it!! However, the groundhogs here like to eat it. Other people have found that the stinging solution can be used as a topical pain reliever. ....By generating pain?!?!?

Very nice finds! Would like to hear more about the rifle parts. I'd trade the beautiful ivy covered forest floor for our Minnesota Prickley Ash, Hawthorn and deer ticks any day! You blokes manage your forests for a more mature stand while we (those americans who mange forests) are tree farmers and after cutting, the forest floors grow up in all sorts of "invaisve" species. If you dose your clothes and body with pesticides, and wear Kevlar pants and long sleeves, you might not donate quite as much blood every outing. Guess that makes it an "adventure"? Oh, I forgot the nettles and wild parsnips which my fellow Minnesotan mentioned, yep, I'm headed to the woods as soon as the humidity gets below 65%!
