These are items I found when I live in Germany from '92-00. Most of what you find today is shrapnel, ammo, buttons, odd bits of field gear and some artillery shells.

Some odd bits mixed together.

Bouncing Betty fuze. I found a ton of these in a forest not far from where I was stationed. Second picture is a grouping as I found them.

I'd love to find a inert S-Mine 35. It would make a great display piece with my fuzes. ;)
 

Interesting, stuff. Thanks for sharing, seeing all those landmine fuses is a bit unnerving.
 

Recently a tourist found a Panzermine with a demolition charge of 10 kgs on a beach at Vesterhavet luckily you have to press with over 200kgs of force to activate those.

Forests of Normandy must still hold lots of stuff?
