I hope this is right place to show some pictures, of my hunts and items that im collecting,if not please move this topic to other thread
I like WWI, Austro-Hungarian staff and Imperial Russia,every year im spending vacations in Poland with my metal detector
High in mountains early spring,you can still see trenches from winter battles,from December 1914 to Maj 1915 in Karpathy mountains , almost one milion soldiers died,huge part of them just froze to death.
Couple days in woods, with detector and good friends are always fun

Thank you Coin Digger
This year weather was great,but at night it was cold,we were slipping in old shacks in forest,polish vodka help as to survive cold nights
At night by the fire,we where thinking about fallen soldiers that died in this beautifull mountains.
On last picture is Tarnica mountain,that is place where we cant dig,its a National Park.

That area looks simply beautiful. Even if one wouldn't recover a thing, it would be wonderful to hunt there. I really like the belt buckles. You must have an amazing collection by now. Do you guys ever video your hunts there? If so, please post as I'm sure we would all love to view them. Big thanks for your photos!

Yes, I think you qualify as a certified buckleholic! Your collection is IMPRESSIVE to say the least! I can see why you like the Imperial Russian artifacts. Thanks for sharing your collection - I really enjoyed viewing the photos!

That's an amazing collection! Incredible history to go along with it. Each one of those buckles most likely represents a fallen soldier.

 

[Yukonbies]

[NiagracountyNY]

My god what a beautiful landscape and beautiful finds. Great job! But if you don't mind me asking I've heard poland's md laws are pretty strict is that true?

 

[Yukonbies]

Hi,no one in Poland will badder you,if you ask about permission to dig on someone land,md is prohibited in national parks and places that are considered archaeological spots.
Forest rangers are nice, if you cover your holes and if you don't leave garbage behind.
We took all garbage with us,even if we found empty beer can that was not our, we where taking this with us.
Slovakia is very strict about md,huge fines,and you have to be really carefull, when you are digging close to border of Slovakia and Poland, its easy to get lost and cross border,and they will hunt you on Slovakian side and fines are huge
I have more pictures,I hope its not boring,if you have any questions please ask

 

[Mr.T]

If there was a banner for collections I would be voting. Amazing stuff.
