    Old Miner's Helmet Piece {2}

    Yeah, I was kind of questioning it for a second but went along with it, lol.

    Old Miner's Helmet Piece {2}

    Yeah, funny thing is I was in a bad mood on that day. I was walking around getting bit by mosquitos and black nats, then I was about ready to leave and got this! That's the magic of metal detecting.

    Old Miner's Helmet Piece {2}

    {Yeah, I posted this find on another section in these forums, but still found it cool enough to share it around.} Got a pretty cool relic from the old miner days that happened around in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, copper mining, some coal, some iron, etc. Found it a couple months ago...

    Old Miner's Helmet piece

    Here's an old little relic I found a couple of months ago at an old railroad station that intersected with the mines that existed around in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. An old neighbor of mine told me about the station, how you could pay a single nickel and go to anywhere you wanted. I...

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    Ay, I will try to. I've metal detected around the property for a good bit a time, only got a few spots to go. :)

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    And yes, there does happen to be an Orthodox church. I'll have that idea in mind if I run out of ideas. Btw, thank you for helping out so much, been thinking about this disk for days and have went everywhere to ask if anyone would recognize/identify it. Out of all places I checked, this place...

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    Yeah, I have a lot to think about this one disk. Pill boxes, Russian immigration, and etc. It is plausible that this was also something that someone held dear to themselves. I can imagine someone carrying around the disk for some particular reason, just lots to think about. Hopefully I find...

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    I see, I'll look into it. Thanks for the extra information. I shouldn't jump the gun after all, it could be anything. Speaking of which if it were a pillbox it'd be a pretty weird place to drop it, usually people didn't want to lose things like that. But I can imagine if it got really dense...

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    Yeah, it's pretty interesting stuff. Tbh the cover could have belonged to any type of pill box from back then, and it definitely is the exact size for one. I've looked all over coin wise/medal wise and haven't found a single similar match in that field. I definitely believe it is from a pill box...

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    Yep, I think you're right. It makes perfect sense and I'm already finding pretty similar symbols on pill boxes from back then. Thanks mate! Was wondering what this thing was.

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    That actually seems very plausible, I'll definitely look into right away to see if I can find a match.

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    So yeah, this disk is indeed between 1882 - 1917, even if I could not see the horse, the history of the property lines up pretty well.

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    Though I do believe it is 100% between 1882 to 1917 because the horse as I can see is indeed facing the other way, not only that but my property used to be first inhabited around the late 1800's/early 1900's according to the family that used to own it. The house has lots of history, the people...

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    No idea what the white side is, it could be enamel, it feels the same as the other side so I doubt it's porcelain. I dug this thing up 12 inches right under a concrete pathway that goes around my house. It could be enamel or something because as you can see some of it appears to be peeling off...

    Thin double headed eagle disk

    I need help identifying this disk that has the Russian coat of arms on it, there's no other details that I can visibly find on the disk. It's a very thin disk and the double headed eagle is on both sides of it. I dug it up at my home, which is located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan near...
