Was time to take out the trash, and a few find pics...

[Bavaria Mike]

Got out this evening for about 2 hours with Florian.? I think he is hooked, he was telling me of a possible town nearby that doesn?t exist anymore.? I have to check with my Historical Society friends to try and validate the town, there is a 5 mile stretch where he thinks it is and I?d like to narrow it down a few miles, LOL!? Florian found a few coins but nothing too old, 1924, 1942ish.? We hit a trashy area for several runs up and down the field, talk about taken the trash out!? But we managed a few finds, here?s mine:
A small shoe buckle and the obverse of a lead seal from a company out of Berlin which is about 400+ kilometers from here.

Reverse of the buckle and lead seal, the eagle on the lead seal looks like an older style eagle used several hundred years ago.? But I really have know idea how old these lead seals I find are.

Obverse of a 1921 Aluminum 50 Pfennig coin in good condition and a 1940ish crusty Zinc 5 Pfennig.

Reverse of the coins, you can make out the swastika lower middle of the coin.? Had a good time, weather was perfect for MDing.? HH, Mike

I would like to know the technique used to get those nice clear closeup photos. Mine always seem to be out of focus. I have a new digital camera by Sony and it is supposed to be able to do close ups but............?

Hi Jimmi, make sure you are using the macro mode, it's the button or symbol of a small tulip looking flower. Use lots of light, I have to because of the black background I use, it's my mouse pad, had it been blue I'd have a blue background, LOL! I have a video camera light that I use as a light source. Sony should be a good camera. I've also piled up a few books on the left and right sides of what is being photoed and use them for a brace. Also have a mini tripod that helps, but I don't use it anymore. Hope that helps! HH, Mike
