Big Surprise Under The Root! - Metal Detecting With Unexpected Finds

I'm on my way to the location... It's raining, but that's OK. I have absolutely no idea what to expect. This will be my first find. 70:30 chances of trash. Foil. It's a small piece of lead. That's a good sign. But let's "move on"... I'm heading towards a certain part of the woods... ...but that doesn't mean, that I won't look around. Hmm, let's see. It's a button. It looks "old". GPS (POI) #1 It didn't sound good. A shotgun cartridge. It's a musket ball. A rain drop, or dirt got on my lens... I have no idea what this is. That's a mushroom. I have to move... I don't think, I would find much there... Hmm, it's a small coin. In a very bad shape. Probably something from ~1800's. It's an aluminum sausage clip. Hmm, should I go up there? Maybe just a little bit... What looks like gold is foil. I went down after a while and found this spot... Something under this root. It's a musket ball. The area here looks modified. Could have been a path from top of the hill... Sounds good! Even the sun came out. A nice looking button. Looks "very old". With flower design. It took me more than 1h to find a promising spot. Although this area feels already detected... ...if a button like this has been overlooked... Maybe because of this piece of foil next to it. Iron. But it sounds "old". I have to see it. Other than that, there are not many iron signals here. I can touch it, but it doesn't want to come out (yet). I apologise for the camera angle. (just a second) Whatever it is, it's old. It's under this root. Oh no, the laughing bird! We'll see who has the last laugh... I have to be careful. After a button like this, it could be anything. It's right there. This must be silver! A big hammered silver coin. Date says: 1622 (I believe), I'm not sure about the rest (yet). There is a guy. I will show you pictures of this coin at the end. Is the bird screaming in the distance? I don't find coins like this very often... It's a pleasant surprise from time to time. What's the "depth". "That" deep. That's iron, but I have to check. Hmm. Doesn't sound clean, but rarely a target on the Deus does... ...in undisturbed ground on "Deep" setting filters. That's probably part of a bullet casing. The soil shaped like a dinosaur for a second... Could be a button... A lion?... No. The air is out of this button. #5 WWII shrapnel. It's a bullet. Right next to a (filled) hole. A button. Sounds like iron from this direction. Just a nail... A .50 caliber bullet. Hmm... I have no idea. Could be a piece of lead. A deep signal? Interesting. What's this? Looks like a "foot". Don't worry, it's plastic. Hmm... The signal improves... Could be iron, but... It seems deep. I have a shovel... ...at home. I can't carry everything. Still nothing? Come on - the hole is almost 20" (50 cm) deep. At this point the signal improves "because" of the hole. I think, I was going to ask the foot what to do. It's pointless, I may return with a shovel some day... Shrapnel. A shotgun cartridge. I'm trying to check the sides. Some large iron... I'm going back... Now I'm in the "valley". I guess "good" targets are out of reach here (depth wise). Part from a wine bottle? Hmm... Part from a trailer? Well... Look at the steam. One more time... That's enough! But I would like to do it a few more times... There was the silver coin... I will check this slope, but I believe that this "valley" is "newer". It's slippery after the rain. Dogs noticed the Deus... A last short section and that will be it... I detected a very small portion of this area. I don't know if I got lucky, or if there is more... It's under the root. A piece of lead. One last target. Another piece of lead. I guess, that's it. I think my assistants are happy. The iron. Pieces of lead. Musket balls. The unknown coin. A button. Another button. Almost smiling... Notice the lion on this button. The first button. Probably a medieval button. The material looks like lead. The silver coin. 1/4 Thaler - Johann II, Duke of Palatine-Zweibrücken 1622? Trash...
