- Digging up Wartime and Nazi-era relics at a historical landfill In Berlin.
Armed to the teeth with shovels and a sifter, we went on an adventure in search or WW2 artifacts at an old Berlin trash site. Dumpster diving the ancient way.
In search for Nazi-era relics and Hitler's lost gold, we found some great items, including an old military parade sword, things with swastikas and much much more! If you are a WW2 fanatic and love seeing old relics i'm sure that you will enjoy the video.
The Video has subtitles in multiple languages for your viewing pleasure!
So buckle in and enjoy the ride!

FAQ:
-Do you report things found to the authorities?
Yes, all nasty things found like UXO's and finds that could be important from an archaeology perspective are reported to the local authorities.
-Do you sell finds?
I am a collector myself so I hardly sell relics. But if I do then I'll post it on the social media pages or think about becoming a Patron, because I'll share finds with my Patrons (check out the Patreon website for details).
-How do you gain permission for metal detecting?
Check out local laws regarding metal detecting and get permission from the landowner. Or hook up with a local metal detecting club in the area you would like to detect and get your information from them. (I stopped responding to questions like this all together, I'm not google..)
-Can I come with you?
No.
-Will you marry me?
No, lets just be friends.
-I want to see more!
Go check out the social media pages, or consider becoming a Patron! Patrons have access to much more, special videos, behind the scenes footage and WW2 goodie boxes containing relics me and my friends found over the years.

Hitler's lost gold or the missing gold train everybody is searching for. But until then I am happy with whatever pops up, I even enjoy finding landmines... :-s

Hey buddy.
If you’re going to sell some of this buttons I’ll be your man. I need some for my collection if possible.
I was stationed in West Berlin bro! 1981-1983, 42nd Engineer company, Andrews Kaserne, Finchenstein Allee! Loved the place and the people for sure! Just wish I could go back one day
@76yankeeamado.
After finish my 6 months military reinforcement in Hohenfels my bn.went to a cultural tour in West Berlin.The next day we crossed the three check points toward east Berlin, lunch a schitzel, a sausage and a "buck" beer. My brother in arms took me a photo beside a war monument suddenly i look down and spotted a coin. It resulted to be a east Germany pfennig made of aluminum. I still have it. The photo and coin are the only memorabilia i have from East berlin 1976.
I seriously love WWII history. Mike captures the mysterious history of the war time, it’s normally something you just hear or read about, but to see him actually dig up the artifacts, makes it that much more real. Crazy!
Have you personally done excavation in any European countries because it is not usually a female that likes digs concerning WWII? I would love to be able to go to Europe to excavate. I know in Russia you can find many WWII materials being that 80% of war was fought there. I realize that some people frown on it especially if it disturbs grave sites.
Thank you for attempting to preserve as much history as possible! It’s sad that most of it will be destroyed and forgotten!
Enjoy watching you! Would love to be somewhere to be able to find such incredible history! My Dad was a Marine in the South Pacific, first company on Guam…my Uncle was shot down over Poland and nothing found of him….this touches my heart!
this man deserves many more followers, greetings
Awwww, thanks!
....yeah.... We could become "Mike's Toxic Tribe"....A fine collection of bastards and misfits.
Mike just found your channel ! Really enjoy your style , have spent a lot of time watching great content . I detect here in the UK . CONGRATULATIONS ON A REALLY INFORMATIVE AND ADDICTIVE CHANNEL. 😊
nice job mike and the guys ,and congrats on the sword :)
Thanks! That sword was indeed cool to find.
Mike, The 1940 HJ badge isnt WHW its a sports festival award. Only issued up until 1943. Nice find.
All the modern day realisable value in the cat piled ash of a ruined city which was almost the centre of a Reich, but not for long_ before tumbling.
So many nice finds too many to name. I'd love to hunt with you Mike. Digging up all that history.
Thanks Joe! It was a fun day being there. Hope that showed.

What an amazing assortment of finds, so many cool bottles and of course Mr Piggy
Mr piggy was the top find!
Awesome finds, nice work guys. 👍❤
Thanks! And thanks for the 5 year sub anniversary!
What a great bunch of finds! Keep digging and detecting, Mike.
I stumbled across this video. I enjoy WWII history. Cool finds!
Glad for your efforts keeping the memory of history alive. Never forget, never repeat
Great finds and I+m happy to find your channel again!
A nice assortment of intact bottles, period badges and memorabilia. Good finds!
Excellent finds 👏 👌. A lot of rewarding finds for all you and your friends hard graft
Thanks! Yeah we all went home with some great relics. :-)
Wow, you guys are awesome. You have a honey pot there. Would love to find a place like that.
nice finds friend, greetings from Greece-Italy.Fausto (I just subscribed to your channel)
Been watching you for years. I think it’s the first comment I’ve left. Always enjoy your videos thanks from South Carolina. USA.
Several really nice finds!
Thanks Chris!
Perfect for putting in the museum about their ww2 history. People can check and learn from the study about people who are from 1920 to 1930 history.
Parabéns pelo seu empenho em resgatar a história.
Just imagine if you were to dig down 50 feet what ancient treasures would be there from maybe 1000 years ago? I will wait for that video haha. But this one was great. I love those little badges
Yup..... Maybe find a treasure of ancient stuff which would one day go to build Britain.
Oh my god so many good finds I'm so jealous! Congrats dudes
Keep the videos coming, look forward to seeing them
Thanks! I will! As long as you guys enjoy it, I'll keep on going
Hello from Southern Ukraine 🖐️😉 Video very, very beautiful ❤ My Super Big Like for your my dear friend 😊👍
Thats a nice green poison bottle, they are very collectable.
The ribbed texture on the side of the bottle, was to alert someone who was maybe elderly with poor eyesight that it was dangerous.
A very interesting dig, with best wishes from Wales.
Отличные находки ! Тоже как то копался в старинной свалке в Москве ,на глубине 4 метра ,во время провеления там ремонтных работ , было очень много старого стекла
Love seeing your name show up in my reminders. Another great video bro
Thanks! Appreciate it
Amazing stuff man, great video!
Thanks!
I subscribed because there is a Turkish translation in your video and you are also energetic and sincere, you deserve many more subscriptions, good luck
Thank you for your kind words and subscribing to the channel.
I hope the subtitles were any good? All most all videos on my channel have Turkish subtitles.
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting The subtitles are just perfect, thank you for taking us into account and adding Turkish subtitles to your videos.
@@32Alperen32 No problem at all, my pleasure!
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting thank you sir have a good day
Way cool!, Iam a old dump digger also years ago, lots of fun.😊
I'll compliment, you're an awesome dude and I love the way you tell the stories of what you find.
awww thanks!! Appreciate that :)
The bottles are amazing 😊
I would have thought that they would have needed all of the glass and other stuff recycled for the war effort, I remember seeing photos scrap stuff in the US bicycles piled high on debris piles with just about a little of everything on the pile, if anyone could help me understand why they did not I would appreciate it, once again an excellent program and as always thank you very much, I have been watching for a little while longer and maybe they threw this stuff in there after the war, they're all a mystery. I really enjoy seeing the digger when he gets excited,
They didn't do much glass recycling back then but I hear you. Such a waste while glass is easy to recycle.
Thanks for watching the video and your kind words. Appreciate it!
It is a bit of fun education to see and learn about badges and devices.
Thanks! Trying to teach you guys while I'm learning :-)
Lieber Gruß!
Ich kenne diese BUDDELGRUBEN!!!
ROCK'N'ROLL BABY 😉🤟🏻👍🏻
:-)
Hiya Mike found your video while scrolling down some amazing finds well done cool channel ♥️👍
Thanks Dean! Appreciate that!
What a pleasure that dig must have been!!
Espero que después dejen todo igual tapando los agujeros 😂 buen video
You are incredible mate absolutely love your videos, exites me when I see you doing the ooo hand movement 😂
lol thanks a lot! Those oohhs come straight from the heart. ;)
Great finds Mike!!
Iron Mike. Is there still places in Germany that you can excavate for weapons and other German war material or have most places been covered?
A dream that place for diggin'..awesome items everywhere!!
great place, but hard work (no complaint..)
Nice finds proud of you guys
Good 👍🏻 from France 🇫🇷 welcome normandie 😉
The hj badge 34 is the first yr. Then they went to metal to bakelight then to tin really thin. Cool finds. 😎🇺🇸🇩🇪😎
cool! Didn't know that :)
Enjoy your videos. Keep digging.
Thanks Cliff! Appreciate it!
I can understand your talk real good. Good video! Liked. Subscribed.
Thanks!
Loved every bottle hope to see more ❤❤❤❤
Good Video and good finds ✨
I know this place, its crazy what you can find there
Saludos afectuosos desde California. Muy buenos objetivos
thanks!
Instant like every time I see ya upload a video ❤✌
Instant thank you for that!!
The glass bottles are the best 😊
Some good money in all those finds. If you do sell them, that is. Just those green/aqua Gift Flasche bottles are worth $100-150 USD each unbroken or unchipped and in overall good shape. There's brown and clear bottles like that as well, in different sizes. The HY badges and sword are crazy finds, i'd be holding onto those!!
in the us nazi period stuff is going for insane prices
Fascinating to see the things they are finding!
I was stationed in Germany 1957 -1959 ( best years of my life) and the coke bottles were white glass. I do have some coins with the swastika on them
Love this show...............Thanks...................
Glad you enjoy it! Thanks for watching and being a subscriber for over a year now.
Beautiful sword!
Awesome! Very nice find's👌
Glad you enjoyed!
Per that opening, that must be pretty far outside Berlin? No thick woodlands like that left near the city. Of course there could be in the Northwest and Western edges such as Spandau and beyond, but there wasn't that much combat there. Especially like there was in the East of course. He could be exploring a Trummerberg (rubble mountain). Just about every major German City has at least 1, probably a few. Especially when you see bricks mixed in with glass, porcelain and the likes. All dumped after the battles and preparation to rebuild which lasted into the early 90's.
Great finds, is the marksmanship badge imperial because of the crown and absence of swastka?
Hellooooooo
From Buffalo New York!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the video. Very interesting.
Thank you for watching!
Great hunt Mike - really jealous of that sword 🗡️
What is the best item you have found? I mean undamaged and in great condition? Love your videos all the best from Sweden🇸🇪
Thanks, nice to read you enjoy the videos! :)
What we find is never undamaged or in mint condition. But best find yet, depends on the mood but right now I would say the Panzerkampfabzeichen German Tanker's badge.
Luar biasa dan tetap semangat ya salam kenal dari Indonesia 🇮🇩 Sulawesi Tenggara Pulau Butuni Saudaraq semoga sehat selalu dan panjang umur serta di lancarkan segala usaha urusan serta reskinya Amiin yarabal allamin saudaraq 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow many finds that I have not seen before such as Nazi party pins etc. Predating ww2. I'm guessing that some of the Nazi branded stuff was tossed out at the end or after ww2. Great digs and finds. Thanks for the video.
Great videos 👍🏻👍🏻 Mike you have been heavily de, educated on your true history
I try! Thanks alot
My German mom got me hooked on Maggi. (American Dad that was stationed in West Germany.)
Классный коп👍🏻
Man, such awesomeness, Greetings from America! Cheers on the beer, enjoy! 🍔🍻🍺
Thanks! Glad you liked it. Cheers!
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting 👍🏽🍻
Awesome finds
Now those were some awesome finds!
Thanks!
Great job
It still hurts to realize, that at the end of the war they also throwed perfectly functional weapons and ammunition into big pits.
Can you imagine MP-40's, STG-44's, MG-42's and other weapons perfectly maintained up to the last day of the war.
And now just laying in a pit with most of them unfortunally rusted to far to make it a wall hanger.
In some cases when weapons are thrown into a lake or swamp, they can appear again in nearly mint condition.
Because due to the mud and sludge at the bottom in a poorly oxygene enviroment, the weapons are protected from from getting rusty.
Wow so what happens to all this stuff you find?
Funny to see the Spoken sign! In the Dutch language spoken means: many ghosts. 👻 👻
And there were many ghosts there 😉
There were! I counted three of them! ;)
Do you ever come across any VW/Kdfwagen items?
Spoeken is a North German dialect word. It means 'speaking'. So, the tile appears to have contained a spell.
Thanks! I didn't know that!
Side note but the dirt over there looks awesome,, I'm from appalachia the dirt here awful looks nothing like that 😂
Like do Brasil 👍🇧🇷
What do you do with all that stuff
What is the name of this forest in Berlin?
My brother told me all the rubble and remains from the destroyed city of Munich were piled up just outside of present day Munich and covreed in dirt and grass. Is this true? Ever dug there?
Before watching this - wasn't destroyed Berlin piled into X 3 tips, like everything, from teaspoons, to knitting needles to Pervitin to all the pretty medals, badges and things of life at the point of annihilation. ¿?
Could be! Never heard of it. But just like this landfill, Munich probably had one as well.
14:10 the crown means the shooting badge is imperial era like the sword.
i think the 1st hj badge is probably a necktie stickpin showing the wearer is a supporter of the hj organization.
that grenade lighter is awesome!
ill bet the sign that said spoken was a sign for a resteraunt that was advertising "english spoken here".
Thanks! Didnt think about the crown on the eagle. You might be right.
And that English spoken sign could well be for a restaurant. That's why I need you guys. I'm doing the digging, you do the detective work.
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting great finds! thanks for saving them from the dirt!
Hello mike from Utica, New York I enjoy watching your Channel!!! can I come metal detecting with you?
Hi! Thanks for watching! Appreciate you being a subscriber to the channel. Sorry but can't take you guys with me. Nothing personal but simply can't bring you all (or all who ask)
Great Mike!

Шикарные находки . Супер.
Hello from Georgia United States Mike (& guys)! I think it is so 😎 you guys sifting and digging to preserve history. The world should thank you. I do some metal detecting here but we only have history that goes back a few hundred years. Carry on lads!
Awesome! Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video.
You have other fun stuff to do there, like shooting guns ;-)
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting indeed 😆 that's always fun but getting expensive
