Battlefield finds in the ground...

Hey its been a while since we all last talked so now I have decided to bring some new stuff up. So if any of you relic hunters have found some interesting tings in the ground or out.. lol post ur finds here and lets talk about it..I my self am very interested in relic hunting and I did some metal detecting here in Canada ,, but didn't find much .. even tho Canada hasn't seen a war in over 200 years lol.. jk any ways my real dream is to go to Romania or Odessa and dig traces of ww2 relics. Let me know your findings.

My lattest find, accidently, was a "10 BANI" Romanian coin from 1906. I've found it while walking my dog in the cemetery close to my garden. I'd thought I'd find something someday other than grave crosses

My latest finding was also a coin, 1 leu from 1887. I was at my girlfrind's house at Poenari and it was practicly in the grass, a round shape. An old woman told me it use to be a shop there, and after the oficial changing of the coins the owner of the shop throwed some old coins... it should pe more but my metal detector didn't find anything... but verry rusted knife and somme verry old nails, that loked like thouse on the Jesus cross

I almost forgot, last summer i was scanning whit my metal detector on the shore of the river Sabar. I found something like a coind, was small and hexagonal. Made of "tabla" whit the edges bended and showed a fat naked woman a writing that i could not understand. A few minutes i lost it...!
I describ it on a coins forum and they agread it was a mediaval jeton

Last summer I was at Ghencea Militar cemetery cleaning up my family's crypt, and my aunt asked me to fill a small pot with sand from outside so she can stick candles in it. I walked outside to the nearest pile of sand/dirt - about 30 yards away, and filled it. Then I looked closer at a pebble on the surface of the sand from the can, picked it up, and discovered it was a human tooth (a molar).

I can provide you as many as you want

Nice . About teeth, a dentist once found my bad molar at the end of his tool (cleste dentar, I do not know the English term) , and I wasn't that happy about his "discovery"

Hello, I want to buy a metal detector but I don't know where to find it. If you know please tell me.

You can buy various size (and price) metal detectors on eBay.

Or at Carrefour, at the toy's section, not kidding.
Goes 15-25 cmm in the ground, and in costs around 700 de mii.

But does it really work Cipiamon ?

i can garanty
is a verry useful tool, and is samll too

Is that 25 mm or 25 cm? Its a huge difference. I dont think 25 mm is useful in searching battlefields.
If its 25cm, then the news is really mindblowing!!! I mean, to find that in the kids section, and for only 20$??? That would be truly unbelievable!

take care

Sorry i met to say 25 cm. But at longer distances (such as 20-25 cm) it reacts only to big objects, such as a machine gun, or a shell. It really is a great tool

Very interesting. I've posted the plans and instructions for a metal detector. I think it works....the really bad part is that the components are hard to find, but with the help of a tv-radio repair man(depanator radio-tv) I think the parts may be switched with modern equivalents.
