Very hot weather has led to very short hunts, normally not more than 1 hour per day.So I combined results of last 3 hunts of this week in 1 post.
I detected new field on Monday - many buttons but no really intersting things, probably UFO only, but I have no idea about it yet.

Next day I returned to my very first field which I started to detect my local area from. 20 minutes in the dusk and then I was disturbed by big slightly drunk company, so I stopped detecting. Found bike bell cover couple of buttonf in very poor shape.

Bell part in detail. It is written there:"Martin Hübner" and "Bayreuth" (city in Bavaria).

I am happy about it because some time before I found another one (do not remember if I posted it)

And finally today I went out to that field again, although I spent on it totally about 30 hours. It still produces goodies.

Surprising find - huge (28mm diameter, 2 mm thick) 3 kopeck coin of Russia dated 1915.

It is the second Russian coin in this area for last year, the first one - silver 20 kopecks - I found about 9 months ago

And big final!!! Massive bronze seal-ring, with the picture on it which I have seen some where in the net, have to search.

And how do you propose to clean those old iron coins?

I still don't have a sure method.

Iron coins? Never found before- may be you mean those brownish wnich I posted? they are of copper mostly- so the best way to soak some months in oil. Iron stuff I clean by electrolysis
