F Fivey Jr. Member Apr 7, 2014 30 43 Midwest Detector(s) used X-terra 705 Primary Interest: All Treasure Hunting Apr 21, 2020 #1 Found an old farm which last existed around 1980. It is remarkably thin and brittle. It looks like it’s made of copper or brass. Very interested in what any of you experts out there think what this thing specifically is.
