About 1 month ago the last field was planted, so that I did not detect (almost) and turned to fossil hunting:

Yesterday I walked around and noted that one corn field was planted such a way that there was a hole inside without corn. After 30 minutes I was there, although it was above 30°C and my wife looked at me as if I were crazy.

Small eagle made of tin alloy - not old but nice to fint after 1 month break.

This 80 year old coin looks like it was lost yesterday

And silver came to me at the end

A bit larger massive silver - broken spoon or fork, with some stamps on it, but I need to look more careful to read them.

Thanks for viewing and HH

I like the fossils, where are you looking for them?

HH, Mike

Probably you know a big hole with fossils near Mistelgau (10 km to the south-west from my city)?

IF YOU FIND ALOT OF THOSE FOSSILS MAYBE YOU CAN DONATE SOME OF THEM TO TO FORUM AS SOME CONTEST PRISES. THEY WERE REALLY COOL.

These fossils are not very nice. it is possible to find there much better things - pyritized gold-looking fossils. Those which are on the photo were too long time exposed to the sun. But anyway no problem_ good idea.
 

Cool finds, I had a friend find a bunch of those spear point looking fossils in The state of Wyoming.
Some people thought they were teeth but then I heard on guy call them squid tales, which led me in a better direction. I think they are called Belemnites, a Squid like creature that had a harder body.
