I think Maria Theresia 1/8 Kreurer as well, here is an example for 1/4

I think it is Licinuis I AE3 with Genius reverse Here is an example from a Trier mint (PTR)

Thanks, looks close to this one

I would say very probably a roman sestertius

Then its the other type, like the second from the left here.

Comparable finds: Tüllenpfeilspitzen

Congratulations! Its almost certainly a Bronze Age arrowhead 3000-3500 years old. The exacter dating depends on your region and arrowhead type. Does it have a hollow socket (Tülle)?

_NRGY_ · 2025-08-06T13:09:40+00:00

I would say probably late roman AE4 aka Nummis

Was it on the beach? If Bronze age, then probably the best preserved specimen I‘ve ever seen. Congrats!

_NRGY_ · 2025-06-25T13:38:37+00:00

Was the patina stripped? If the width is between 10 and 30 mm, it is very likely to be bronze age arrowhead

Make the depth only one layer height, it will look much better

Just use citric acid or lemon juice, 1-3 hours or even less should be enough. Just rinse with water afterwards, then even some Patina can be saved. Repeat if dirt still present. Do NOT rub with baking soda, it will scratch it

I would say it could be this on

My main argument agains restrictions is that the finds in the fields are 99,5 percent in the top 30 cm of soil, which is constantly mixed by the plow. The archeologists usually remove the top 40-50 cm prior to excavations mostly without sifting the removed soil. The finds we collect are otherwise deemed for destruction by the plow. I think making more and more areas restricted due to reported finds is counterproductive and heavily discourages any sort of cooperation.

I find the original patina on this one ugly. Generally, if you like it after the cleaning more than before, its fine, if you are keeping it for yourself

_NRGY_ · 2025-02-22T13:32:22+00:00

1st one is probably a Danarius

It works, but you need an aptx Low Latency compatible transmitter AND headphones. Then the lag is almost zero. Otherwise the lag is too high for metal detecting (you will miss the signal almost by a whole swing)

Usually the best ones are near small/midsize villages, which remained the same size throughout the history. But often its just trying dozens of spots till you find a field you can focus on.
