So about a week ago I found a Medieval Copper Ring in the woods while metal detecting and I also found a small (Probably Copper) Piece that I can't tell how old it is and what it is: The woods I detected is known for medieval and even older remains. So if this is Medieval or older please let...

I have posted this ring on the forum before but I didn't get any good answer so I'm posting this again. I found this ring while Metal Detecting. Here are the photos: I Strongly believe that this is Medieval cause I have researched the area and found a couple of Ancient Monuments around the...

Hello Fellow Detectorists! Last week the Relic Rangers searched some of the oldest yards in town and recovered some great historical treasures! This episode has it all, from tokens to vintage toys, old coins and big silver AND oh yes - GOLD! Witness the extraction of Mercs, Buff's, V's, War...

So, a week ago I found my first buckle, a quite large and heavy (46.5 g) buckle: It wasn't quite deep because of the very hard soil. I think the pin in the buckle is made out of iron and the buckle itself is made out of copper or bronze. I also think it's of a horse strap. I'm not familiar...

Hey! Found this relic in the middle of a field in south Louisiana close to New Orleans. A 1775 real was also found in this field. It is very heavy, and hit by a plow a number of times. Would love as much help and info identifying this piece as you all can give. My first thought was...

Does anyone know what this is? I'm 99% sure it's from World War 2. I found it at sandbridge beach Virginia (in VA beach). P.S. It's made of copper if you didn't already figure it out. (Not sure why my pics are sideways.)

Hello everyone, this is my first post. Recently bought a Garrett AT Pro to do some relic hunting. My first find was this strange piece. It's very heavy, probably lead and looks pretty old. I found it in the US Virgin Islands next to the ruins of an old stone wall. I was thinking it might be...

Hi Everyone :), I just started MD as a hobby. I've been reading a lot on the topic and have decided to invest in my first detector. I'm primarily interested in relic hunting and heard a lot about the Fisher 1266x. I know its an older model, but would anyone still recommend a used 1266x in 2017...

Hello, I am recently retired and have just begun to learn about Native American artifacts. My family owns a large piece of property in St. Charles, MO. It has a large creek and smaller creeks running through it, and it is well-known/believed that Native Americans once lived on the property...

Been having unusually warm weather over the weekend in NJ so I decided to throw on the waders and see what this old stream near me had to offer. I don't normally have luck in streams due to the thick silt that tends to build up but this one had large boulders in it which proved to be way more...

4 rings clay plug hollowed point with wood plug in nose.

I dug this (?) Belt plate about a year ago, but have yet to find another example with no designs or markings. I was just curious if anyone else might recognize it?

Hi All of the items were found on my own property . I know the penny is a penny and it actually tells you how old it is. Yay. Can someone help me with the other items .. What they are and an estimate of age???[:dontknow:

So, here's one for the Cannonballguy, I was out detecting in my hometown in NH and I dug this large ball of iron from the town park(town was settled in 1760). I thought it was curious, but didn't think much of it until I read a thread about a possible canister shot find here on T-Net. Needless...

When this item sounded off on my Infinium LS, it nearly blew my headphones off! Was about 16" deep in 3' of salt water. One of the most unusual "What's It's" I've ever found. It measures 8-1/2"L x 2-1/8"W x 1"T at the widest point. It's also slightly curved over its length. Any ideas? Thanks...

Hello treasure hunters! I recently dug my best coin ever. My question for you is, what would you do with it? Would you send it for grading? What would you expect back? What would you be happy getting if you sold it? Ive read a lot of post on here about sending in dug coins, not to do it...

Dug up this Newfoundland Regiment button. That's a first for me! :icon_thumright:

Not sure if this is the right place to post, however, I'm a private collector in NY and am interested in Confederate weapons and accoutrements, both dug and non-dug. Please pm me should you have anything you're willing to part with! Thank you. -George

Victorian stove and early 1900's school desk parts! IRON RELICS!!! Searched a nearby wooded area and came across a small iron dump. In this dump, I found parts to an Victorian era stove and parts to a early 1900's school desk! :hello2: There were even parts to an old bed frame and a tricycle...

Found this neat "Wyatt Marshal Earp" badge while metal detecting. 8-)

Wow. What a find this was. It is the most beautiful relic I have dug up yet.:love4: Too bad I'm not exactly sure what it is.

Found this cobbler hammer that was all rusted up and junked up...electrolysis and then made a handle for it out of Brazilian Rosewood. One of my favorites so far. Lots of time and effort went into this but I think the results were definitely worth it. Original photos pre electrolysis can be...

I don't recall where I found this piece of bronze. Either California High Desert So. Cal. or Superior AZ. By the the look of the patina and odd shaped tool it has a pin on one end like a clevis and half round on other. Any ideas.

Hey Group I'm Matt and I'm new here but I have been in the detecting hobby for about a year now. I go once or twice a month and I have been fortunate enough to dig up a gold bar "2.5 oz", old coins, musket ram rod near a skirmish site, civil war bullets, wagon wheel and more. But out of all...

I am posting several machines for the family of a club member who passed away 3 weeks ago. The first machine is a Nautilus DMC II-B-A. As fellow forum member Poppa just sold an almost identical machine (his was a II-B and this one is a II-B-A) his words are echoed here. This machine is for...

I just found these rare religious medals... Any input on rarity is welcome.

My pal was out arrowhead hunting and he found some "Roundness" on top of the soil ! Here it is, definitely the oldest one I have ever seen from out here. Almost looks like it was made from a coin bet he thought it was a coin till he read "Dog Tag" on it :laughing7: Still its looks like an...

Bought this at a Garage Sale out in the country about 15 years ago for $75. I would like to know if the story the guy told me is true about finding them all during the building of Del Webb's Sun City in Georgetown, TX. The centerpiece SPEARPOINT is 8 1/4" x 2 1/8" and no chips or impefections...

I bought this wooden case of Arrowheads at a Garage Sale out in the country almost 15 years ago. It has a centerpiece SPEARPOINT that is 8 1/4" x 2 1/8" and in perfect condition; no chips and symetry are great. I have no clue what "type" it is, or how old it is, or if the story he...

Had a very strong signal and got the clock movement housing and next to it was a car ignition switch cylinder also, go figure ! The round brass item looks like it could have had several uses. Started the hunt late today because of the heat and humidity so my hunt was even shorter than usual...

Found these chains at the site of an old courthouse/jailhouse near where I'm from. The police jury ceased all operations at the courthouse in 1880. The building was torn down and removed sometime around 1904. From everything that I've seen on the internet these could very well be prisoner...

Hey all, I found these items within ten feet of a cut stone foundation in the middle of the woods. Usually I can identify things within a day or two of digging them, but these two "coin looking" objects have me stumped. I found them within 3 feet of each other about 4 inches in the ground. If...

1920's Sterling Silver Mirror and Chainmail Bag Another dump find, this time some 1920's stuff. Found this amongst household junk someone tossed. There were some other old things like combs and books but they were all broken and must have been outside in the elements for quite some time...
