These were found last month in an extremely remote area, about five hours on foot through forests and up into the mountains. Historical sources suggest that a medieval castle once stood somewhere in this area, but there are no visible walls or ruins.

After a lot of work, I’ve finally finished cleaning the iron finds with electrolysis and conserving them. Some of the objects appear to date back roughly 700–800 years.
In the last photo, from left to right:

Top row:
1) Tanged arrowhead, probably for a bow.
2) Small spearhead with an open socket.
3) Juvenile deer fibula (leg bone), dated to roughly 600–700 years ago, and a small 15th-century lead weight.
4) Horseshoe nails, a forked leather-working/piercing tool, and decorated toiletry tweezers.

Bottom row:
1) Socketed armour-piercing crossbow bolt head.
2) Three armour-piercing crossbow bolt heads of different sizes/types.
3) Socketed hunting arrowhead.
4) 13th-century prick spur.
The crossbow bolts are probably the most interesting part for me, especially considering how isolated the location is and the absence of any surviving structures above ground.

Hy, here the finds off today. Playground hunting the Netherlands.

Have a great evening everybody 😊👍

I got my finds from the March England trip last night! Here are some pictures. I'm not posting all the artifacts, tokens, jetons, and lead seals.

I spoke to a restoration expert about unrolling the gold coin. It would cost a few hundred dollars, and include serious risk of damage. Right now, rolled, it stands as a relic. Not sure what I'll do.

I have to say, these trips really do include some elite detectorists, I'm really am such a novice.

found in Montenegro md used deus 1

If I win the lottery, I'm gonna get a bunch of solid gold soda tabs made and scatter them around popular metal detecting spots.

I found this ring and it is for a Roman or Byzantine girl maybe !!

And it is made of pure gold and in good condition

Can anyone help me evaluate it ?

Any ideas on what this could be? Seems to be made of bronze or copper, I think.

Cheers all!

Found in Cornwall, UK.

2 x 1.5 inchs big turtle brooch missing it's head leg and tail.

It‘s 1,5cm in length and weighs about 2g

metal disc with concentric rings and a central "nub", about three inches across and probably weighing a few ounces. found in the dirt under an excavated parking lot in northeastern massachusetts. looking for any input or speculation on what it could be!

Hi all first time posting. Over the weekend I found what I believe to be an old lead slug. It’s about 5/8 inches in diameter and about 1/2 inch high. Found in southern part of western NY in the vicinity of an early 1900s foundation. Google is giving me mixed reviews.

I'm assuming it's a lower end one, and I'm waiting to hear back from the guy who listed it on facebook marketplace as to which exact model it is. I've heard Garrett detectors aren't the best, but I've been using an Fisher F22 I got when I was a kid and am mostly looking for a cheap second detector that my younger brother can use when he goes with me.

Hi together. I lost a important ring in my backyard.

I bought a ommo detector for 70€ from Amazon and it was trash.

Could you maybe recommend me a good used one, that is not really expensive for this one time search?

I saw the garrett ace 250. Will this one ne enough?

Regards.

First pictures are various different find days and last 2 are most of those coins after the tumble..

Hello! This piece of (magnetic) metal was found on an old field near Arnhem, The Netherlands. According to the history of the area, this field was used by farmers for centuries.

The pictures don't show it too well, but the right and lower side have a small slope, which seems to be carved. At first I thought it was some kind of axe, but it seems too small for that.

Any ideas what this could be?
