I don't mean like someone's lost purse or wallets!..

Like finding something with a metal detector or something ancient washed up on a beach?..

I'm always interested in stuff like this, never had much luck myself , but a lad who my brother knows found some Roman coins..the jammy git!!..he's been metal detecting for years though and has some of the best fear to help him search.

Never had such luck myself though.

I'm blathering into the wee small hours here and early doors in the morning Zzzz. Night. :great:
 
Not with a metal detector but I found some pieces of old vases from the Roman Empire, not sure what period exactly though (can't remember).
 
I found a persons face (The res of their body was covered in sand. But they weren't laying down they where standing!) Thats about it other than the occasional 20$ on the street.
 
I always believe we are all destined to find something a bit unusual or rare at some point in our lives when we are least expecting it..

Just when and what are the questions!

I have found a few items. 🙂
 
The last thing I had found, was a small rock with some gold in it. Not worth much in terms that it wasn't a big rock, and it didn't have allot of gold to get out of it.

I just re- read this as I'm not sure if I'm mixed up?..did you find a real persons face you mean?...deceased?

Hey Josh..just out of curiosity , did you get a valuation on the gold?

Even if was only a tiny amount?
 
I've found a few interesting things. My father does the whole storage auctions so we've found anything from guns, money, silver and gold coins to sex toys :X
 
Wow there are more people who have found stuff than I thought! 🙂

You've probably almost seen it all then! 😉

Almost, oh and forgot to mention we have found some actual nazi things and old WWI and WWII stuff. Very cool :]
 
I love metal detecting. I've found 5 gold coins. All US since I'm in California. I've been detecting since I was 14 I think. I've found countless amounts of jewelry and old coins. I hunt old mining areas and construction sites in San francisco.
