hi all, been on my permission yesterday and after battling with the wind and the rain and my wellies getting stuck in boggy soil,i managed to find this items.One of them looks like the back of old tweezers,the silver button is made of copper with silver on top
and that ornate chunk of copper,i have no idea.All came of about the same square meter...

Well done on getting out, not many have in the weather we’ve had lately.
The ‘old tweezers’ is a split pin. And the last pic looks like part of a key or handle plate.
That would have been a nice and expensive button when new. It’s always nice to find a thimble.
Thanks for posting.

Well done getting out and braving the weather Andre. I suppose, in theory, the saturated fields should improve the conductivity under the turf and assist our detectors in punching deeper to find those ever elusive targets.

What sort of depths were you recovering your targets from?
