Not sure what the names of the watches are,the swastika (sterling silver) badge and artillery cap badge were found on the same field (within 30ft of each other:confused:). |
Re: Metal Detecting (Including Finds).
The wrist watch furthest left looks similar to an Army issued model (G1098), articles to the left of & above the artillery cap badge also appear to be cap badges & the swastika looks to have an embellishment in the centre. Hard to say as the picture seems out of focus on enlargement.
Only asking as I am that cat. ;) |

Well,I managed to get out today,I wanted to conduct an analysis of the land on a new permission which I managed to secure last week.
I was only suppose to spend a hour giving it a quick going over with the detecting stick but I ended up staying 3.5hrs :D I had a few notable bits including a toy cannon,a cap badge (unsure on the regiment) and a Nigerian one penny (never seen one before). Attachment 54782 |

Re: Metal Detecting (Including Finds).
Very interesting :) I showed this photo to Himself (who hunted bear before he met me and was also in the militia here in Canada) and he thinks the top one is a dum/dum (whoever had it cut the bullet in half, not all the way through, so that when it hit, it would shatter and be devastating). The one down from that has a crimped front end which means it's probably a blank. The one down from that is just a shell casing - has been fired and looks like a .303 (or 7.62 NATO) The one below that is a fired .22 Long Rifle casing (he knows nothing about he coins but enjoyed seeing these :)

Re: Metal Detecting (Including Finds).
Cheers for the info,my question is this,why are there so many bullets in the ground...IRA,modern day criminals or something less sinister?
I hear cordite,which is allegedly what is in some WW bullets, is illegal in any amount....does this mean I risk arrest if I hand them into the police? :confused: |

Thank you Dave and Retlaw - I guess he doesn't know as much as he thinks, Hahhah.
