Hello gents.
I spent 4 days in France and Belgium touring the military cemetery's of WWI this was mainly to pay respects to 3 great uncles who were brothers and were all killed. 2 of those brothers had gone to Canada in 1913 but enlisted into the Canadian army only 8 months later when WWI broke out and returned with the CEF in 1914. They joined up in a place called moose jaw, 2 are commemorated on the Menin gate as there bodies were never found so i visited that and one was buried near Arras and i visited his grave. I returned Saturday. Tonight i went out detecting for an hour. Few hits and pics will show usual rubbish.. 2 coins balder than Kojak, bits of tin, metal, led but one decent coin and a button.
Now it gets spooky...the coin is Canadian and the button is German from the Kreigsmarine in WWI !!! I have never found any foreign material and of course its only coincidence but still quite something in my opinion.
