. .. Great finds , that piece like you said , i think too it also looks like from off of a candle holder , bet it was really a beautiful candle holder at one time! Nice video , thanks for sharing it with us all.
hello kat :) thank you! yes it has to be from a candle holder. . i checkt it with a candle of usual size and i've seen candle holders like that before. . .i would say it was a classicistic one. . thank you for watching, commenting and for your kind words! its a pleasure sharing my vids to a wonderful community :) best wishes, hans
I really like the toothbrush idea with the melted tip on the end. I made a bunch and wrapped Velcro around the middle, then put the other small piece on my metal detector housing, now it's always right there.
Neil Schostag hey neil, sorry for the late reply! for some reason i wasn't informed about your comment! it's a good help for giving finds a first quick clean :) i'm glad you like the idea! i like your idea too! i have a control box cover and i can slide my toothbrush in the cover so i have it always close at hand :) thank you for watching and commenting!!! all the best, GL&HH! hans
Hi Hans, Another great video and some nice finds, you are making my mouth water with all those Roman coins you are finding but I am pleased for you, you work very hard finding them, Looking forward to your next video Hans, take care my friend, Regards Richard, GL&HH.
hello richard :) thank you my friend! it makes me happy to hear that! it is just an unique area i have to detect there and i'm very grateful to have the opportunity to examine it! but as you mentioned i had to work really hard this time! the trash rate was unreal!!! thank you for watching and for your kind words! best wishes, GL&HH! hans
+Roman de Caesar vielen dank für deinen besuch und für deinen netten kommentar! ich freue mich zu hören, dass dir meine videos gefallen :) viele grüße, hans
Great video! I too perform a "recon" on areas that are massive to determine the best area to start with. What's really neat is when you find "no" trash (very rare) but I have found spots like that which-produced good finds. I carry a small spray bottle with dish soap, vinegar, and a little bit of "Jet" ( a rinse aid for dishwashers), it helps with removing the gunk off finds. HHS
hello docdaugh :) thank you! it took some overcoming to do it as i of course wanted to start detecting straight away. . .i'm so glad i did it because the result is another hot spot :) good idea with your spray! sounds like an effective mix! thank you for watching and commenting! best wishes, GL&HH! hans

Hi Hans! I think, that the buckle you found is a 17- or 1800 shoe-buckle.... (at 7.30min) Atleast thats what it looks like to me, this one looks like it came of a right shoe. It has no function except decorative. Relaxing videos you make, love watching them! Keep it up!
Sometimes we do get in a hurry to just jump right in and turn on the machine and go. It pays off to slow down and take a look around. Nice hunt Hans, Thanks for posting enjoyed the video as always. GL & HH
hello michael :) you are right. . .it's understadable impatientness :D i had to force myself to do this recce and it payed dividents :) thank you for watching and for your kind words! best wishes, GL&HH! hans
Looks like you discovered another exciting site. I agree with you as I don't like to detect along roads either. It is too noisy, too trashy and I don't like people hollering at me and looking at me but on the other hand that is where I have located many fantastic relics because most roads have been around for a long time and people have been traveling along them. I believe the ornate relic you found is indeed a candle holder that seems to have been attached to a candelabra that would have held several candles. The buckle you found is very common here in the states and dates usually from the 1700s into the early 1800s. Thanks so much for taking us along on your adventures.
it's just amazing this area! it seems as if every field there was part of a huge settlement. . .i agree with you about the roads! the finds rate is often good but you are not alone and undisturbed. . .thank you for your information about the buckle and for watching! i appreciate it and i'm happy that you like my videos :) best wishes, GL&HH! hans
Hello from Montana USA. I love your channel. I can’t imagine how many hours you must put in to find as many items as you do. Even though much may be trash I know every find is worth something. I always tell myself I’m doing something for the planet by putting trash where it needs to be. A dump so future diggers a thousand years from now can find all their goodies in one place. 😂. I believe the English word on the buckle you found might be slant. It looked a bit slanted to me anyway. Just starting metal detecting and not finding much but it’s a blast. I tend to pick up trash wherever I go now so it’s been a good hobby to pick up. Happy hunting.
hello tina, this field is amazingly trashy but one has to endure it as there are serious treasures to find on it. I can't wait to return there but unfortunately it is under crops most of the times. thank you for watching and for commenting! all the best and happy hunting, hans

Wonderful channel,I really enjoy the video of the fields, flowers, and sky. I appreciate the time you put into your channel. I'm a transplanted American living in northern Italy and have been detecting for a little less than a year. I too have some beautiful areas to walk and I am fortunate to have so much history to digest. I'm sure I speak for a lot of Americans out there when I say you seem to live in a detectorist's paradise. Back where I lived in the States 1870 was an old coin.
thank you dough, I'm happy to hear that you like my channel! Thank you for watching and for appreciating my work :) germany has some great history hiding beneath the surface and If you have a permit and you play according to the rules you can even go and look for it with a detector. all the best, hans
‘Rivet’ is a ‘stud’ used nowadays to join your dress shirt cuffs closed or the stiff collar to the rest of the shirt. You have a small slit in clothing and put the small end in the slit and maybe have something written on the side facing out or a precious stone.
Hi Hans, looking at the colour of the soil there l would have to say you were south some where, l do some detecting from time to time in the Rendsburg area (lehmbek near the Kiel canal) lovely black soil and easy to dig, find the usual stuff like musket balls, seals, few coins. Here in the UK where l dig the soil is clay and so very hard going, especially in the summer when its all dried out. good vids enjoy them, happy digging, steve
Steve Treadders hello steve! i'm detecting the frankfurt area. . .it's middle germany but of course south of kiel :) here the soil is similar to yours in england. . i have to work very hard to dig my holes at times and in winter when it's moist i drag kilos of earth around with me. . .lol thank you for watching and subscribing!!! all the best, GL&HH! hans

Hi Hans - Great hunt once again. That was quite a pile of trash you had there but for 3 Roman coins and some nice relics, seems like a good trade off. Nicely done! All the best to you. GL&HH
hello joe :) thank you! i'm very happy about the result and yes it was a lot of work but in the end a fairly good trade :) thank you for watching and for your kind words! all the best to you, too! GL&HH! hans
Hi Hans, beautiful and interesting finds! I never got more than 2 Roman coins in a field, so no hot spots found yet.. I'm hunting Roman grass tomorrow (a bit more work with the grassplugs) hoping on some good finds ;-) Best wishes and good hunting! Lieven
hello lieven :) thank you! i'm pretty sure that you will find your hot spot soon. . you keep finding roman coins which is a good sign. . maybe you are scratching the borders of your hot spot the whole time :) i keep my fingers crossed for you! good luck on your pasture site! best wishes, GL&HH! hans
Hallo Hans. I live in GAP and can't wait to start detecting this year. If you come to Bayern let me know, perhaps we can link up for a day! Great video thanks!
Приветствую, камрад. Спасибо за видео, очень понравилось. Очень тоскую по раскопкам, это моё самоё любимое хобби. В Украине каждые выходные проводил с металлодетектором в полях и лесах. А сейчас уже два месяца живу в Йене в Тюрингии и очень тоскую по хобби( вот хочу позже немного разрешение оформить. Спасибо за видеоролик. Удачи в полях!
Вячеслав Лектор Привет приятель! Благодарю Вас за Ваш визит и за хороший комментарий! Я рад слышать, что вам нравится мое видео! Спасибо, удачи и до скорой встречи, Ганс
Can You imagine that the last human hand to touch these roman coins were 1000 or 3000 years ago!! Does it not make one think and shiver with delight?? Cheers Sir, magnificent.
Hans; Terrific hunt! The Roman coins keep coming and the relics were intriguing. I believe the candle holder was Acanthus leaves rather than Oak leaves. Your advice in the recon of the fields was valuable and obviously paid off for you. The trash and proximity to the highly trafficked road were down sides,but ones we all endure. Beautiful work on your videos, a pleasure to view- keep it going! Fred
hello fred :) thank you! yes they do i can't believe how many of them are around there. . .i agree about the leaves of the candle holder! it's just strange how these items made their way to the fields!? digging the trash was very time consuming and exhausting but as you said, it paid off :)thank you for watching and for your kind words fred! i appreciate your comment! best wishes, GL&HH! hans
hello dave :) thank you! these roman coins are amazing and it's unreal to find that many. . .something is telling me that these coins weren't the last ones :) thank you for watching and commenting! best wishes,GL&HH! hans
Marko Hynninen hello marko! lol. . these are the most interesting ones. . .unfortunately ;) yes it is. . i'm so grateful to be able to detect it! thank you for watching!!! all the best, hans
Agent Fungus hello! thank you for watching and commenting!! believe me it is mind boggling for me as well :) . . i don't take these finds for granted! i'm happy to hear you enjoy my vids :) thank you!! all the best, hans
Thank you for your awesome vids from across the pond. My late parents were from WWII Poland, so can appreciate the ancient history of Europe. Anything over 30 years old in the US is considered ancient, people and buildings included.
my pleasure, thank you for watching them! ah ok. . cool poland is 6 hours away from here by car :) lol. . so i would be ancient in the us?? i'm so happy to live in europe :D all the best to you! hans
So different than the US. I think I could reach Canada in 6 hours if I drove above the speed limit. Your videos are very well made easy to watch. Keep up the good work!
Greg Kerr hello greg :) thank you! it's really amazing and i will never get used to it! it's fantastic to be the first one to hold these coins in my hands again after almost 2000 years! thank you for watching!!! all the best! hans
Hi; Like the way you show finding items and how steady your cam is. Most other detectors move their cam all around so that it hard to see what they are doing. Keep up the works. Look forward to more from you.
+montanablake hello my friend, thank you for watching and for your kind words! I'm happy to hear that you like the way I make my videos! I always wanted to give the viewer the feeling to be with me on the field. . .I appreciate your nice comment :) all the best, hans
Hi Hans, love your videos. I think your "rivet" could well be a collar stud, in this case a back stud. They were used to fasten a loose collar to the neckband of a shirt. Heavy duty, maybe for a working man or a soldier?
Hello from Finland! Nice stuff, that you found. I'm going to start serching, first buy detector and maybe search detecting foundation from here to get help(sorry about my English ).
Perttu hytönen hello perttu! thank you! i'm glad you like my finds :) good luck with your new hobby i hope you will enjoy it! thank you for watching and commenting!!! all the best, hans
Congratulations on your 50th MD video Hans (if I may call you so... I am Al)... well done once again with the Roman coins. How I envy you... in Canada we have nothing like that! I think the word for the shape of that buckle is 'trapezoidal'... sort of a bent rectangle... I'm thinking it may not have been made that way, but forced into that shape over time... but who knows? Another great trip along with you, and looking forward to the next 50 or so! Perhaps a gold coin is not far off? Fingers crossed! ;-)
hello al :) thank you my friend! of course you can call me hans!! it's unreal that it's the 50th vid already. . .the roman coins keep coming and something is telling me that there may be more of them :) "trapezoidal" that is the word i was looking for. . .haha. . thank you! thank you for watching, commeting and for your kind words! i don't know how i would react if i find a gold coin. . haha. . .maybe it's not fit for being shown :D best wishes, GL&HH! hans
Hey, great videos! I just found your channel and it's very impressive. My ancestors come from a small town outside of Herford in Germany. One day I want to go visit my ancestors' home and maybe metal detect the area. Is there a time of year that is best for detecting on farmer's fields?
hello mike :) thank you! i was very busy, you can say that again :D it's a site close to the road and a foothpath! horrible!!! but i'm glad i had the patience to examine the place. . .it paied off!! thank you for watching and commenting :) best wishes, hans
The item @5:14 may be a piece to a walking stick/cane? That was what I thought when I first saw it. Wonderful finds. Meine mutter wahr im Gelnhausen geborn. Sorry if my German is rusty. I haven't spoken in many years. I miss the old country. Deutsch was my first language before English because my father was away in the Vietnam War and my mother raised us.
NorthShoreJoe hello joe :) thank you for your comment! could very well be what you've said! i can imagine that too! thank you! funny! i grew up in a neighbor town of gelnhausen! the world is a village :) btw. your german is still very good! thank you for watching joe!! all the best, hans
Great hunt Hans. I have a roman site, have found 3 brooches over the years, but never found a roman coin! You have great detecting land there, and that field is just awesome for detecting on.. All the best, Rich.
hello rich :) thank you! this is strange. . normaly you would find coins easyer than brooches! but as you can see, nothing is set into stone when it comes to metal detecting :) i'm soo happy about the area i can detect there! it's just amazing and exciting :) thank you for watching and commenting! best wishes, GL&HH! hans

I wonder if the modern road follows a Roman road and there was a dwelling there from several eras. That mansion on the hill nearby might have originally been on that spot. My distant relative Just von Seelhorst was a Prussian Dragoon and recieved a knighthood and Pour le Merite from Frederick the Great. Loved that button.
Really Nice Finds but today you had to work hard at it from the looks of the rubbish, being next to a road will get you lots of that stuff. Love the effort you put into your Hunts & Video's Hans. Great Job......
hello my friend! you can say that again! it was hard work! i had to dig countless times! but it's ok as long you have a hand full of goodys at the end of the day :) thank you for watching and for your kind words! makes me happy you like them! best wishes, hans

I believe Ive seen that leafy round ornament before. It looks very similar to a candle light holder. There were four of these to the sides and one in the middle. Nice find :)

Think you need a longer spade friend ! Or your back will be knackered in time like mine . Good vid ! The buckle is oblong and I think the other thing you found with an eye in it looked like part of a fob watch chain , good hunting !

Hi Hans!
I think, that the buckle you found is a 17- or 1800 shoe-buckle.... (at 7.30min)
Atleast thats what it looks like to me, this one looks like it came of a right shoe.
It has no function except decorative.
Relaxing videos you make, love watching them!
Keep it up!
Sometimes we do get in a hurry to just jump right in and turn on the machine and go. It pays off to slow down and take a look around. Nice hunt Hans, Thanks for posting enjoyed the video as always. GL & HH

Please describe "not very old" in your opinion. In Canada anything older than 1899 is exciting and old!! Great video.
Old in Lebanon is whatever before Roman times lol.

Hi Hans HAPPY NEW YEAR congratulations on your wonderful finds II enjoy your videos
happy new year to you, too my friend and thank you for watching my channel :)
‘Rivet’ is a ‘stud’ used nowadays to join your dress shirt cuffs closed or the stiff collar to the rest of the shirt. You have a small slit in clothing and put the small end in the slit and maybe have something written on the side facing out or a precious stone.
Hi Hans, looking at the colour of the soil there l would have to say you were south some where, l do some detecting from time to time in the Rendsburg area (lehmbek near the Kiel canal) lovely black soil and easy to dig, find the usual stuff like musket balls, seals, few coins.
Here in the UK where l dig the soil is clay and so very hard going, especially in the summer when its all dried out. good vids enjoy them, happy digging, steve
Steve Treadders hello steve!
i'm detecting the frankfurt area. . .it's middle germany but of course south of kiel :) here the soil is similar to yours in england. . i have to work very hard to dig my holes at times and in winter when it's moist i drag kilos of earth around with me. . .lol
thank you for watching and subscribing!!!
all the best, GL&HH!

Hi Hans - Great hunt once again. That was quite a pile of trash you had there but for 3 Roman coins and some nice relics, seems like a good trade off. Nicely done! All the best to you. GL&HH
hello joe :)
thank you! i'm very happy about the result and yes it was a lot of work but in the end a fairly good trade :) thank you for watching and for your kind words! all the best to you, too! GL&HH! hans
Hi Hans, beautiful and interesting finds!
I never got more than 2 Roman coins in a field, so no hot spots found yet..
I'm hunting Roman grass tomorrow (a bit more work with the grassplugs) hoping on some good finds ;-)
Best wishes and good hunting!
Lieven
hello lieven :)
thank you! i'm pretty sure that you will find your hot spot soon. . you keep finding roman coins which is a good sign. . maybe you are scratching the borders of your hot spot the whole time :)
i keep my fingers crossed for you! good luck on your pasture site!
best wishes, GL&HH! hans
Hallo Hans. I live in GAP and can't wait to start detecting this year. If you come to Bayern let me know, perhaps we can link up for a day! Great video thanks!
GarmischGator hello!

Hons I think your right a candel holder.
Приветствую, камрад. Спасибо за видео, очень понравилось. Очень тоскую по раскопкам, это моё самоё любимое хобби. В Украине каждые выходные проводил с металлодетектором в полях и лесах. А сейчас уже два месяца живу в Йене в Тюрингии и очень тоскую по хобби( вот хочу позже немного разрешение оформить.
Спасибо за видеоролик. Удачи в полях!
Вячеслав Лектор Привет приятель! Благодарю Вас за Ваш визит и за хороший комментарий! Я рад слышать, что вам нравится мое видео!
Спасибо, удачи и до скорой встречи,
Ганс
Fantastic, especially the roman coin.
+Mick DeVille hello mick,
thank you, I'm happy to hear you like the finds!
thank you also for watching!
amazing hunt nice objects GL&HH
hello :)
thank you for watching and commenting!
best wishes, GL&HH! hans
Can You imagine that the last human hand to touch these roman coins were 1000 or 3000 years ago!! Does it not make one think and shiver with delight?? Cheers Sir, magnificent.
it's an amazing feeling of awe!
Hans;
Terrific hunt! The Roman coins keep coming and the relics were intriguing. I believe the candle holder was Acanthus leaves rather than Oak leaves. Your advice in the recon of the fields was valuable and obviously paid off for you. The trash and proximity to the highly trafficked road were down sides,but ones we all endure. Beautiful work on your videos, a pleasure to view- keep it going! Fred
hello fred :)
thank you! yes they do i can't believe how many of them are around there. . .i agree about the leaves of the candle holder! it's just strange how these items made their way to the fields!? digging the trash was very time consuming and exhausting but as you said, it paid off :)thank you for watching and for your kind words fred! i appreciate your comment! best wishes, GL&HH! hans
Great video and finds.shoe buckle nice and you keep pulling those roman coins out. Nice one dave
hello dave :)
thank you! these roman coins are amazing and it's unreal to find that many. . .something is telling me that these coins weren't the last ones :)
thank you for watching and commenting!

Super video and very nice finds. Greetings Marc from Holland.
***** hello marc!

Happy newyear Hans
thank you!
Fantastic! Thank you! Super Editing and cutaways. Keep it up please?
I know you are tired. A very tiring occupation. But so rewarding for you and for the people who watch your videos.
when I moved you from my phone to my tablet my name changed to awishinandahopin from Dianne.☺
Same thing here in Finland. Lot of scrap on the ground too.
I must say, that´s nice field you got. Well done.
Marko Hynninen hello marko!
lol. . these are the most interesting ones. . .unfortunately ;)
yes it is. . i'm so grateful to be able to detect it!
thank you for watching!!!
all the best,

Wow. Finding Roman coins 1700 years old!!! I'm from the US, so something like this is mind boggling. Enjoy your videos. Sehr gut!
Agent Fungus hello!
thank you for watching and commenting!!
believe me it is mind boggling for me as well :) . . i don't take these finds for granted!
i'm happy to hear you enjoy my vids :) thank you!!
all the best,
hans
Thank you for your awesome vids from across the pond.
My late parents were from WWII Poland, so can appreciate the ancient history of Europe. Anything over 30 years old in the US is considered ancient, people and buildings included.
my pleasure, thank you for watching them!
ah ok. . cool poland is 6 hours away from here by car :)
lol. . so i would be ancient in the us?? i'm so happy to live in europe :D
all the best to you!
hans
So different than the US. I think I could reach Canada in 6 hours if I drove above the speed limit.
Your videos are very well made easy to watch. Keep up the good work!
please don't do it . . lol
thank you for your kind words! it makes me happy to hear that :)
I am glad this is 6 years old video, and you no longer use toothbrush and sand to scrape the patina of Roman coins. :)
Nice job, i will start doing it in the next month...kepp it up!
+mocrean adrian good luck and happy hunting and thank you for watching :)
Enjoyed your video. Thanks.
I'm happy to hear that :) thank you for watching!
I love Hessen. I wish my mom hadn't moved to Stuttgart. I imagine there have been many changes since I was in Hanau in 2010.
Good video! Amazing to find coins almost 2,000 yrs old!
Greg Kerr hello greg :)
thank you! it's really amazing and i will never get used to it! it's fantastic to be the first one to hold these coins in my hands again after almost 2000 years!
thank you for watching!!!
all the best!
hans
Hi; Like the way you show finding items and how steady your cam is. Most other detectors move their cam all around so that it hard to see what they are doing. Keep up the works. Look forward to more from you.
+montanablake hello my friend,
thank you for watching and for your kind words! I'm happy to hear that you like the way I make my videos! I always wanted to give the viewer the feeling to be with me on the field. . .I appreciate your nice comment :)

Great hunt & Great video Hans nice finds :)HH!
hello michael :)
thank you for watching and commenting my friend :) glad you liked my vid :)
best wishes, GL&HH! hans
Hi Hans, love your videos. I think your "rivet" could well be a collar stud, in this case a back stud. They were used to fasten a loose collar to the neckband of a shirt. Heavy duty, maybe for a working man or a soldier?
hello roger,
thank you, I'm happy to hear that :) thank you also fro sharing your thoughts about the"rivet" . . .very interesting!
Hello from Finland!
Nice stuff, that you found. I'm going to start serching, first buy detector and maybe search detecting foundation from here to get help(sorry about my English ).
Perttu hytönen hello perttu!
thank you! i'm glad you like my finds :) good luck with your new hobby i hope you will enjoy it!
thank you for watching and commenting!!!
all the best,

Sehr cool dass Du auch den Müll mit nimmst!
ehrensache :)
danke fürs anschauen und kommentieren!
That's cool to find so many Roman coins.
Very nice finds. If I ever find a Roman coin I will let you celebrate with me.
Congratulations on your 50th MD video Hans (if I may call you so... I am Al)... well done once again with the Roman coins. How I envy you... in Canada we have nothing like that! I think the word for the shape of that buckle is 'trapezoidal'... sort of a bent rectangle... I'm thinking it may not have been made that way, but forced into that shape over time... but who knows? Another great trip along with you, and looking forward to the next 50 or so! Perhaps a gold coin is not far off? Fingers crossed! ;-)
hello al :)
thank you my friend! of course you can call me hans!! it's unreal that it's the 50th vid already. . .the roman coins keep coming and something is telling me that there may be more of them :) "trapezoidal" that is the word i was looking for. . .haha. . thank you! thank you for watching, commeting and for your kind words! i don't know how i would react if i find a gold coin. . haha. . .maybe it's not fit for being shown :D
best wishes, GL&HH! hans
enjoyed the video well done on the finds
thank you, I'm happy to hear that :) I hope I will be able to upload soon again.
Hey, great videos! I just found your channel and it's very impressive. My ancestors come from a small town outside of Herford in Germany. One day I want to go visit my ancestors' home and maybe metal detect the area. Is there a time of year that is best for detecting on farmer's fields?
Good effort mate, enjoying your excellent videos and enthusiasm for the hobby. Brilliant finds throughout, Keep it up!
thank you my friend, I'm happy to hear that you enjoy my videos! thank you for watching and for your kind comment :)
Awesome hunt, and looks like you were very busy by the total amount of targets you'd dug.
hello mike :)
thank you!
i was very busy, you can say that again :D it's a site close to the road and a foothpath! horrible!!! but i'm glad i had the patience to examine the place. . .it paied off!!
thank you for watching and commenting :)
best wishes, hans
You rock Hans! Good findings!
thank you my friend :)
The item @5:14 may be a piece to a walking stick/cane? That was what I thought when I first saw it. Wonderful finds. Meine mutter wahr im Gelnhausen geborn. Sorry if my German is rusty. I haven't spoken in many years. I miss the old country. Deutsch was my first language before English because my father was away in the Vietnam War and my mother raised us.
NorthShoreJoe hello joe :)
thank you for your comment! could very well be what you've said! i can imagine that too! thank you!
funny! i grew up in a neighbor town of gelnhausen! the world is a village :) btw. your german is still very good!
thank you for watching joe!!
all the best, hans
I like your findings. Hope you find alot next year - happy new year!
Landsfader thank you, i'm happy to hear that :)
all the best for 2015!
hans
Great hunt Hans. I have a roman site, have found 3 brooches over the years, but never found a roman coin! You have great detecting land there, and that field is just awesome for detecting on.. All the best, Rich.
hello rich :)
thank you! this is strange. . normaly you would find coins easyer than brooches! but as you can see, nothing is set into stone when it comes to metal detecting :)
i'm soo happy about the area i can detect there! it's just amazing and exciting :) thank you for watching and commenting!
best wishes, GL&HH! hans
Very nice Hans, kudos on 50 awesome videos! - Mike
hello mike :)

I wonder if the modern road follows a Roman road and there was a dwelling there from several eras. That mansion on the hill nearby might have originally been on that spot. My distant relative Just von Seelhorst was a Prussian Dragoon and recieved a knighthood and Pour le Merite from Frederick the Great. Loved that button.
very nice work..it makes me sad of what is happening to Germany...
Really Nice Finds but today you had to work hard at it from the looks of the rubbish, being next to a road will get you lots of that stuff. Love the effort you put into your Hunts & Video's Hans. Great Job......
hello my friend!
you can say that again! it was hard work! i had to dig countless times! but it's ok as long you have a hand full of goodys at the end of the day :) thank you for watching and for your kind words! makes me happy you like them!
best wishes, hans
Germany looks beautiful. I'd love to visit sometime. Cheers from Texas.
the candle holder is I think a plume holder for a helmet or possible for horse maybe Victorian or Georgian . great finds again terra well done :)
thank you for watching and for your kind and interesting comment!
all the best,
hans :)
Your videos are very interesting, thumbs up. But next time, try to find a tank, or halftrack or something big.
J Dahllquist hello!

I believe Ive seen that leafy round ornament before. It looks very similar to a candle light holder. There were four of these to the sides and one in the middle. Nice find :)
+sprmusa hello my friend, thank you for confirming my guess. . I thought in the same direction! thank you for watching and for your helpful comment!
all the best,

hi hans, ich finde es super das du immer auch den trash zeigst. bei 5:10 würde ich auch auf einen kerzenhalter tippen.glückwunsch zu dem wunderschönen folli...ich suche weiter,so soll es sein...vlg,gf+hh , klaus
+Düsch Mo hallo klaus,
klar zeige ich den müll, das gehört zum hobby :) . . da hast du recht mit deiner vermutung, es ist ein kerzenhalter :) danke fürs anschauen meiner videos und für deine netten kommentare!
vlg, GL&HH!
hans
Think you need a longer spade friend ! Or your back will be knackered in time like mine . Good vid ! The buckle is oblong and I think the other thing you found with an eye in it looked like part of a fob watch chain , good hunting !
anthony preston hello anthony :)
lol. . you're so right! and i already bought a new one. . you can see it in my latest videos. . .thank you for telling me about the objects! i always appreciate helpful comments!
thank you for watching!!!
all the best, GL&HH!
hans
Ich denke das unbekannte Objekt könnte auf der spitze VOB einem Goltz Stab gewesen sein um eine Flagge oder ein Schild hoch zu halten...
Tayfun Sarar hallo tayfun,
danke für deine vermutung zu dem unbekannten objekt. . .mir haben schon oft zuschauer geholfen gegenstände zu bestimmen. . .deshalb schätze ich kommentare wie deinen. . .danke dafür und für deinen besuch!
LG,
hans
At 4:27 that could possibly be a helmet crest for WW1 German officers. Take it to a museum that may have some of these helmets and check it out
interesting! I will follow your guess! thank you for watching and for your helpful comment!
Hello Hans,
Great video! When is the next one? i am looking forward to see it!
Go on like this!
GL&HH roan
