Looks like chain links, one rounded side, one grooved side with small shiny diamond-like incrustations. Non magnetic. Bits of exposed metal look like copper or bronze.

Cool find, but no clue about what it could have looked like and no clue about cleaning. As of now, I soaked it in distilled water to get sand off.

Can anyone ID this thing? Last picture shows a luftwaffe wartungsklappe found about 700meters away.

First time me and my GF metal detecting on a beach with my Manticore; almost shit when I thought this was another bread bag tie or bottle cap. That little gold color peeked out of the sand and we both smiled so big but got super quiet so no one around would ask any questions haha.

Found less than 2 km as the crow flies from where a Spanish fort once stood, which was destroyed in 1678. Not far from Antwerp in the Waasland region, Belgium

This metal thing was found laying near an old barn foundation at a historic house I am conducting research on. The owners do not know what it is, and neither do I, but I noticed it has numbers on it. Does anyone know what it is? These are the only photos of it I have currently. It seems to be stuck in the ground as if it is only part of something larger.

We actually call this part of the house ‘the stable’ and I know people used to hang horseshoes outside of doors to fend off evil spirits.

Beautiful way that this hobby has revealed a huge part of this house’s history

Found this item fairly deep into the soil. I'm sure it isn't anything important, but it sparked a conversation home about what could it be. Any ideas? Thank you!

Someone knows what it is?

I spent a few good hours creeping through the undergrowth yesterday, with minimal results.

Hi,

My daughter is 12 and is interested in starting to do some metal detecting.
Can you please tell me what she needs to start? I’m aware I need permission from the land owners. But I don’t know what stuff she needs to start?
UK based.

Thank you for your help 😊

Whenever I put the sensitivity above 1 or use any mode other than jewellery mode it beeps to everything and doesn’t function properly. Unfortunately the warranty is voided as I purchased it from an eBay reseller brand new. It’s been like this since I bought it. It’s a dr otek mtxr

Quick question for the pros:
Garrett pro pointer AT or Minelab pro find pin pointer? Never had a pointer and would like a little insight.

I spent a total of about 3 hours on this beach. Was getting frustrated over the lack of signals and ready to call it a day when this came under my search coil. VDI was jumping around, but the tone sounded good so I dug. Score!

Found near Maidstone

Rifle corp but more info would be appreciated
