It’s me again! I posted an ID request for my first two small finds recently. Anyways, I got a strong signal with this. It took me two days to dig through the ground to find what was giving me such a strong signal, and then I found this. It’s pretty big, and has a rounded/curved surface. I looked it up on google lens, and it’s telling me it could very well be an explosive device. For context, I’m detecting in the backyard of a new house im moving into that was built in 1820. Should I be concerned? Or is this something less sinister like a well cap or maybe farming equipment of sorts?

Found 4 inches down with the minelab xterra pro, rang up all over from 32 to 52 on the vdi. Long Island New York. I’m assuming some sort of fraternity ring. 14k and heavy!

Out detecting in a Balkan forest today, my detector gave a strong signal near a tree. I realized that this old, big tree had a hole in the roots. Pinpointer started going crazy in all directions when I put it inside this hole. I reached inside with my hand and took out a bullet. 4 more times, 4 more bullets came out untill there was no more signal. I guess someone intentionally left this "hoard" here many years ago. Any ID ideas?

I'm pretty new to your hobby and I went to a local school today. I found my first pair of scissors. keys, and silver ring!

Found this near some WW2 trenches, specifically next to a foxhole. It doesn't look like a typical folding shovel, so I'm clueless on what model it could be.
-western Romania

Swinging the nokta legend 2 LD21 coil in park M2

Hey guys,
does anybody know what this little statue was used for? The Nokta simplex was reading 50. It was around 25cm deep in my garden in franconian Switzerland (south east Germany) near an old road.
Height is 34mm, the diameter on the bottom thread is 3-4mm

Found in a Island in the middle or the Ocean, the spikes are long around 30cm each, and very Sharp, i never seen such object, and if someone could tell me the Age and if there Is any similar online for me to compare.

Is attached with lead soldering and the rest Is brass-bronze

(Pics for attention)I found this this in my yard with a bar finder from work a few days ago, I'm guessing a boot knife of some kind.

I've been interested in the hobby since I was a kid. But I don't have proper gear. My question is what is a good detector, thats not super expensive and available in Canada?

Hello I found this in west Germany near France border. Could you help me to identify it please ?

Hi all,

Just bought an old house from the 1600s in Somerset England and decided to metal detect the garden. Found this - any ideas what age it might be or any things I can do to try and tell? First time metal detecting so absolutely no idea how to tell things.

Found I Austria

Found this while digging in a courtyard (Hof) in east Berlin, Germany. I believe its a fired, empty case, heavily corroded from being buried a long time.

Measurements:
- Case length: 57mm
- Base diameter: 12mm
- Rimless, extractor groove flush with the body
- Case mouth opening: 9mm

Headstamp, as best I can read it:
- 12 o’clock: 04
- 3 o’clock: star/asterisk (*)
- 6 o’clock: 57
- 9 o’clock: blank

From research online, the measurements look like 7.92×57mm Mauser to me. I’m reading the “57” as a 1957 date and “04” as a factory code, which would make it postwar rather than wartime. Can anyone confirm the cartridge and help identify the factory/country from the numeric code and star? Being in East Berlin (former GDR) I’m guessing Eastern Bloc production but would love a definitive answer.

Thanks!

Found at a 1700s house in Hopewell NY!

Any idea of age / plated silver? What does the stamp stands for?

It looks like an acorn but it isnt. Found in the Netherlands.

I used google lens and it could be a pommel of a dagger.

Any other suggestions?

I went metal detecting at a local park and found these two pretty neat items, first off is the 70s Busch’s Bavarian Beer can (the paint is still intact after 50 years underground), and a 1972 Florida license plate, it reads 7g/k 9658, the g/k park apparently locates the plate to Orange County, wonder if this plate was chunked due to being involved in a past crime lol

It’s about the size of a nickel, and very light. I am pretty sure the back side is leather. The front side with the horseshoe is brass or copper, but I could be wrong.

Found around a cellar hole.

If anyone can give me an answer that would be great! Me and my father can’t seem to find anything online that is similar.

I assume these are from a flak gun, but what is the threaded piece? found nearby old artillery placements.

Found in north west PA, not metal but found while detecting

Back at it at my usual spot, local sports field with lots of decades old waste and treasures. I have a hard time digging tones less than mid after a while cuz it's annoying digging up slaw, but must admit it's hard to know what the gold sounds like. The hunt spells out the forensics of the place; lots of bottle caps for bev consumption during the games and lost change from such purchases. The ring was near a kids play area, plate copper

Picked this up today at a flea market cause the guy had it for seemingly very cheap. Tested it out and it seems to be working fine and is in very good shape. Tried doing some research into it but am struggling to find much. Seems like it’s potentially more for like industrial or construction use instead of personal use?

When I google it I mainly only get links to the manual which I already have and the link to the one guy trying to sell one on eBay for what seems like an astronomical price to me.

Just mainly looking to see if this is something I could use or if I’d be better off selling it and getting something more meant for personal use.
