Had a great detecting week end. The harvest is in the full speed so more fields get accessible every day.
The best find was without a doubt my very first Fugio cent. To be honest it wasn't really on my bucket list as I never though of finding one in Canada.
It's not in the top shape but I'm still pretty happy with the condition as other coins in the area didn't survive that well.
An other great find was a Connecticut copper 1786 (4.1-G) Second one this month.
Than my favorite military find of the week end. My first US Artillery button 1812
A few more coins. Some are in a decent shape.
Duke of Wellington 1814 Halfpenny token.
My first George II Hibernia (1745 I believe)
Matron 1848
Bank of Montreal Halfpenny 1844
A few worn coins. Mostly George II and George III
An unusual relic and my only silver find this week end. Didn't think much of it when I've found it, but still left it in my car. Latter on checked it again and noticed the STERLING mark. Not sure if it's from a walking cane or part of a powder flask.
A few civilian buttons.
Religious medallion.
And a huge copper or brass heart shaped lock.
Thanks for the comments.
