I had not much time for MDing in November, and no time at all to post here :(, so today just few finds from several hunts during last three weeks.
These are finds from first hunt in November, not many.

Unusual for that field silver, normally only 20th century there. 6 kreuzer with Ludwig I, king of Bavaria, 1833.

Usual coin in unusual state. Hope there is no blood of owner on it-

Average complex of finds from November

Sometimes fields gave up more interesting stuff. Pewter button from 16-18th century.

Friedrich III has become a German Kaiser and king of Prussia on 9th of March 1888, This medal was issued for that event. But he was extremely sick, died after 99 days, on June, 15, 1888.

1 kreuzer from Saxony-Meiningen, dated 1864, before cleaning.

Sand, great to see you post again! Outstanding digs with great history behind them. The winter time is upon us here . Ground is froze and it is snowing here in North Dakota. I miss the great finds of Germany and I still have the files that you sent me of all the coins . Thanks much ,that is my snowed in project this winter .Trying to ID the stuff that I found there. Thanks for posting .I always enjoy you findings. :)
 

luv the eyes only finds :o
 

Nice finds, some of the ww2 pieces are very special. I belive the little eagle you have found is an early SA model.
 

Very cool finds :)

Outstanding finds !!!! Must be a rush finding such a variety of good finds.Hey that looks like my eyeball lol. God Bless and HH..Panz
 

Awesome find's Sand....Thank's for sharing them with us,everyone's a keeper in my book.Congrat's and HH!!
 

Awesome finds Sand! Good to see you are still getting out. It is possible my job will be moving back to Bavaria before Spring comes, maybe we can get out again. I was in your area all day Saturday, shopping, it was terrible, LOL! HH, Mike
 

Cool Stuff Sand!!!

Cool finds Mike! The eyeballed finds are pretty cool too. What is that ceramic piece that says "We thank our Fuhrer" that is on the left beneath the soldiers firing the Nebelwerfer? The von Moltke piece is pretty cool too. I can't figure out of its Moltke the Elder or Moltke the younger though. I'm guessing that it's Helmuth Karl Bernhard, Graf von Moltke, who commanded the Army under Bismarck and had a much more illustrious career than his nephew, Helmuth Johann Ludwig von Moltke who commanded the army at the start of WW1 and is blamed somewhat for Germany's loss of the first battle of the Marne in 1914.

WTG!!!

This is a propaganda pin from the Winterhilfswerk (WHW) series (so called "winter help" beneficent campaign and also help to Wehrmacht in the Third Reich).
Here is another version:

You are right, this is also a whw-piece, frome the series "Famous Germans"

Would be nice to get out together, by the way I think I heard today a story about you from one of my work colleagues - he said he met a Goldschmied which knows aa american searcher_ who found a gold coin :)_ and who has a permission - I think it was about you :) - I become famous LOL!

P.S. Shopping is terrible, I hate it, especially when my wife goes with me.
 

Glad to have you back with us and posting again. Excellent bunch of finds, both dug and eyeballed. HH

Nice selection & welcome back.

Shooting holes in coins is fairly common (target practice).

I like the pewter button the best.
 

Hey Sand, yes I do know a Goldschmied/Goldsmith. He did some work for me and also authenticated my gold coin. He wants to go detect with me sometime but I have not had much time to hunt with a newbie since my job moved. Now that I am famous, let me know when I rich, LOL. HH, Mike
