- Metal detecting in search for World War II treasure and relics on the German Western front.
Stumbled upon a anti aircraft position which was filled with relics that were left behind during the war. We found loads of items, personal things, huge casings and even a freaking British landmine that looks like a canteen bottle!

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 Patreon, because I'll share some 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 ask for permission from the landowner.
-Can I come with you?
No.
-Can I marry you?
No, lets just be friends.
-What metal detector do you use?
At the moment a Garrett Ace Apex with a bigger coil.
-Camera?
Go Pro 7 and a Sony handy cam
-Favourite find?
Deep Digger Dan's UA-cam channel
-What is on your bucket list?
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...
-I need to ask you something that wasn't mentioned in this FAQ list!
Sure, post a comment, send me a message on Instagram, Facebook or email me.
Thanks for watching guys, hope you enjoy the content. If you have any questions, feel free to ask right here in the comments! (Sometimes it takes me a while to respond..)
Hi please come see me on the channel, did I find something ?? and to identify it mute. Thanks in advance and best regards
Good vid Mike. Just for your information. The spoon you found was from a company that had a lot of tea rooms in the UK. They were called Lyons Co Ltd and later manufactured caked, biscuits etc.
Oh wow! Thanks for the info. Did you have to look that up or that some thing all British just know? (LOL, and don't even mean that offensively..)
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting Something British people of a certain age would know. Even though my name is Lyons I am not related, unfortunately.
Cool Mike, good to see you back. Life's better with an oooooooooo ! 😁😉
You got that right Andy! life is best at it's finest ooooooooooooo's moments!
Thanks for watching.
The first find remembers me of the Symbol of the Reichsbahn, a train wheel with wings
And I see why! One of the things I would love to find, a huge train eagle :) Thanks for watching Lukas
Brilliant spot Mike, I really enjoyed that, lovely finds.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
Great video Mike, always enjoy seeing what you find. Happy new year and all the best.
Happy new year!
2:52 you are absolutely right with Pfennig. But it's a "modern" one, post WW. As you flipped it to its back, you could see the writing "Bundesrepublik Deutschland" - Federal Republic of Germany.
You really rock with your stuff! The picture at 11:39 was taken a couple of miles from my home a day before D-Day. It is Greenham Common where Eisenhower bid the men to fare well. He stayed until the very last flight was made. Horser gliders were also launched from Greenham. I have in my garden a huge tether that screwed into the ground, much like a cork screw.
Olá, sou brasileira, moro no Sul do país, onde a maioria somos descendentes de alemães e italianos. Sempre que posso assisto seus vídeos.
Discovered your vids via another metal detector's channel and glad I did! Very enjoyable and personable attitude. Makes me wanna go digging!
interesting findings mike! greetings from Saudi Arabia ❤️
I’m glad I was alerted to this video via your Facebook page. Always a unique experience. Thank you, Iron Mike!
My pleasure Ralph! Thanks a lot for watching and your kind words. Stay safe!
This is a great channel. I really like the way you give context to the pieces you find. Really brings the past to life.
Thanks for Doug! I appreciate that.
Great finds iron mike
Hello, the sign at 1.45 belongs to a Görike Bike it was mounted on the front of the mudguard
Greatings Ecki from Dinslaken
Well done!
Hawkins Antipersonel Mine. Be careful Mike those things have long memories of their purpose. You be careful my friend.
I will Jack. Hate finding this stuff but that's just part of the work..
Very cool picture of the paratrooper with the mine strapped to his leg.
I would love to go out with you and be the newbie someday 😁.
Some great finds. Thanks for the video 👍.
You're in! The picture of the US paratrooper having that thing strapped to his leg right before he flew off towards Normandy blew my mind when I saw it. Makes that thing so much cooler. and can understand why he would bring that. Such a small anti tank mine, must have been one of the smallest ones around back then.
Thanks for the comment and the view Jim. Very much appreciate all your support to the channel.
Stay safe!
Hawkins mine is full of TNT. Probably not shock sensitive but the chemical itself causes all kinds of problems in humans.
Yes you're right,. Nasty stuff. it was reported and should have been properly dealt with by now.
Such an underrated channel...
U deserve more respect man,
Stay safe out there!
Great videos mike good to see you back missed the videos hope theres more to come my friend hope your well and staying safe 👍👍👊👊
Hey, no plans on retirement so expect MOAR!! As soon as we are in control of this stupid virus I'm flying all over the place to metal detect and make videos. As long as you guys watch the video and enjoy them I'll be making them.
Stay safe Thomas!
Glad you went back. Found some nice pieces of history.
Thanks Joe!

Stay safe!
Hi Mike, looks like the newbie did pretty good, I think you have competition 😉😅. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 🙏💖
Hi Sue, yeah those damn newbies. Find tons of good stuff without them even knowing what they just found.
But thanks to him I did have a chance to show some good content for you guys. (Don't tell him that..)
Thanks for watching! Stay safe!
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting Haha, you too. xx
That ally tube/stringwithinnn: found siilarina stick grenade wooden handle in a F bunker, string was joined with a small piece of white ceramic or maybe Bakelite. Bob squad removed it with any other recovered pieces after a small unexpected explosion!
Thanks for the great video Mike and I especially liked your FAQ question ... Be Well and Be Safe my friend..
Glad you enjoyed the video Ted! Hey, glad that someone actually took their time to read the FAQ! LOL
Amazing as always there Mike, nice finds
Thanks for watching Kenny! Appreciate it
Hi from the UK, great job guys 👍
Hello I.M., I thought I saw your hand spade back on your belt while filming, glad you finally found it!! Hey Mike, you know you must keep making these vids while you're out detecting 'cause if ya don't, "iron will rust"!!! We can't have that, now can we??? Keep up the good work and keep these vids coming! Be safe and take care, "God Bless", sincerely, Randy. 👍👍🙏🏻😇👊
No it's still in that hole where I found the golden buttons! Just imagine another guy metal detecting there and finds all these WW2 related things and all of a sudden finds my super brand new (modern) digging tool! LOL
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting Okay Mike, I get it, "ha ha" of course ya didn't move a few hands of dirt to reach it!🙄 Hey it's one thing to "pull the leg" of someone you can see, but Mike ya'll are waaay over there, and since ya can't see me waaay over here when you're "pulling someone's leg, ya might not have a grasp on what ya think ya do"!!!😱 🤣 Always wear gloves, better safe than sorry!!! 🤣🤔 Keep up the good work and keep these vids coming! Be safe and take care, "God Bless", sincerely, Randy. 👍👍🙏🏻😇👊
Good video Iron Mike. Keep them coming.
More to come Larry! Thanks for watching.
Iron Mike
Some down right amazing finds I wished I was able to go dig things from WW2 my great grandfather was in it and I remember as a little boy having him tell me stories from the war such a wonderful man he was but keep the videos coming man can wait to see what you have in store for the next video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Chris! Hear a lot of stories about WW2 veterans hardly wanted to talk about their war experiences. Probably because they witnessed the true horrors of war. You are very blessed that he actually survived the war and was willing to tell you his stories. Thanks for watching and stay safe!
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting yes I was very blessed he was a wonderful man and my father was in the Golf war and then me and my older brother both fought in Iraq war thanks for getting back to me
I envy you for the nearby history, then I remember the trouble and suffering the area went through, I'm not so envious.
Well you can say the whole world suffered from this useless war. But I know what you're saying, we Europeans suffered from human losses and structural damage.
Nice 👍 friend 👍
Thank you 👍
Cool video man! The music at the end is glorious!
Glad you liked it! You can download the track if you want to and (try to) support the guy while you at it :)
Details are in the description here below.
Thanks for watching!
Wow Sehr gut 🍺 kameraden
Very cool finds , and keep up the good work
For the 88mm shells it is called a fuse not detonator
Ok, thanks for helping me out!
Good to see you Mike, hope you are well.
Hey thanks for dropping by! Doing good, hope you are well too.
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting I'm good thanks Mike :)
Very nice finds thank you have a great day
Thank you Steve! You too!
Cool finds Mike, Until the next video take care :)
Thanks for watching Welshy. Stay safe!
Hey, Mike! Interesting finds!
Hey, thanks! Love, hate, love, hate, love, hate finding mines..
Oooooh yes! great start to the weekend thanks big balls
You bet heath! Hope you enjoyed the video, dug up that landmine just for you..
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting I thought you might have. Balls of steel haha
Great Hunt IronMike,👍😁 greetings to Italy 🇮🇹
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for dropping by!
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting 😀💪
This stuff is so interesting
Thanks Mason! Nice to hear you enjoyed the video :)
Iron Mike is my favorite metal detector! Keep up the good work Mike! You're the best!
What a coincidence! You are my favourite Nerd! Thanks for watching. See you in Valheim.
Get in!!!!!! 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼😁😁😁😁😁😁😁👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼Gwooorrn Mike
You got to get out to get in! What a legend!
well the bakelite shards from broken fuze containers or whole containers is not a good sign, because there can be fuzes themselves near, the worst find one can find is a fuze
Awesome finds
Good find but coin is better wish more hole good job
Tolles Video 👍👍👍
Danke für anschauen Bernd!
Hele vete video mike 👊
Bedankt Diego!
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting 👊
Great finds would love to buy some of the German artifacts that you dug up if i could
Recommendation? thinking of getting my first detector for use at the beach. Toss up between Garrett AT pro versus the Teknetics T2 LE. Your input would be appreciated. Thanks! And really enjoy your videos
Hi Philip! How about the Garrett Ace Apex? is has a very good salt mode version to get rid of those ghost signals when detecting the shore line.
I have used it on the beach and I think it's one of the best beach detectors.
Made a video using it on the beach, here's the link:

Salut, superbes trouvailles militaria, French Kiss by
French kiss? I'm glad you did that digitally! LOL
Thanks buddy, appreciate it.
What a nice find, it's a shame that you only found a brass case. Stay healthy and continue to find good 👍
Stay healthy shelter in place in place hahahahahah
Who needs a stupid steel casings when you can have the best brass the Third Reich had to offer!
Thanks for watching DH & Charles.
God I wish I had a detector love your videos mate keep up the good work :)
If you have the means, go get one! Seriously, you won't regret it. Thanks for watching!
Mike, coole video!! Geweldig!
Hé, als je een keertje ten noorden van Berlijn bent, laat het me ff weten. Ik woon daar en weet wel wat leuke plekjes. Kunnen we samen zoeken.
Hoi Gerrit, stuur me even een berichtje op facebook of instagram (of een mailtje). Altijd al een keertje in het Noorden willen rondkijken ☺️👍
I like this channel ! 😊👍🏼 So much good finds and very amusing!
Best wishes from Bavaria 🥨
Bless you 🍀

The contenitor with the string is the Actived detonetor of a stil hand grenade
Don't think so! Found those before in the past. But thanks for trying to help me out here Sofia!
Stay safe!
Bonjour de la Somme.👍👋
wow nice findings
bedankt Rens!
Your very first find looks like a hood ornament from a car or truck. Great vid, Mike. I missed you.
Hank
Edit. Should have watched the whole vid first. Lol.
Yeah you should have watched some more before commenting ;)
Dont worry, I'm thankful for your help. I just lazy at times and ask for your opinions to quick I guess ;)
Yes weer een gave video. Altijd leuk en gaaf like als je het ook altijd leuke video vind.
Bedankt voor het kijken! En leuk dat je de eerste was :)
Mooie vondsten heren
Bedankt Roberto!
boom
I surely hope not!
Das ist ein Emblem von Göricke
Saisiko tekstityksen myös Suomeksi ? ( Finland )
Ik ben te lui om alle comments te lezen.....
Dus sorry als t al gezegd is.
De zwarte boterdoos is Luftwaffe.
Dikke score.
Boterdozen gaan voor rond de €50.- pst kompleet 👍👍👍👍
Nee, je bent de eerste en wist niet dat zwart LW was. Dus dank voor je reactie! :)
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting cool😁
Luiheid is dus soms niet slecht.
Proficiat met de leuke vondsten👍
Hello Mike
Really interesting things did you find!
How did you get a permission to detect as a foreigner in the forest of berlin?
And how long does it take?
many UK SSI [Sites of scientific interest] are former minefields
I rather stay away from those :)
hah, the half exploded shells without a fuze often are still with the tnt... i found one like that once
it was a smoke grenade (hollow on the inside). But you're right, still needs to be dealt with care.
Thanks for your comment and your view!
Ich werde dir Mal ein Abo da lassen! Weil mir schon seit 3 Jahre deine Videos gefallen👍👍besonders mit deutschen Untertiteln! Wenn es russisch wär hätte ich nicht soviel Probleme etwas zu beraten! Ich bin jetzt 72 j alt und hatte in der Schule 6 j Russisch aber kein Englisch ! Danke 👍👍 ich freue auf ein neues Video bleibt gesund gr aus Brandenburg
Endlich ein Abonnement nach 3 Jahren !! ;)
Schön zu hören, dass dir die Videos gefallen. Danke fürs Zuschauen und hoffe, dass die Untertitel korrekt sind?
Nice bro
Thank you kindly Mr President!
Adoraria se teus vídeos tivessem legenda em espanhol ou português. 🙂🤗
Awesome video! Do you think you will ever find Hitler’s Gold?
Hi Kylie! Hope not, because once I find that I'm done.. And who needs his stupid gold when I have you as a subscriber!
They’re like those chocolate containers around the store food like chocolate
LOL what have you been smoking Kyle?
(Got some left?)
Iron Mike, a question. How long would these mines and hand grenades stay active after the War ? Considering the damp climate in Germany, 2-3 years maybe ?
All depends on what type of grenade and mine but it will always be unstable. So I rather not fool around with it.
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting I watched some Russian video where A guy found a mine, peeled off the rusty case and put a blasting cap in the plain cylinder of exposed explosives. He then placed it behind a tree and lit the fuse. When it went off, it exploded like it was made yesterday.
P.S. you are right.
Yeah.. Oooouuuu 😅 I back Mike!
Welcome back Kim!
Bei minute 2:55 das war eine 1 Pfennig münze aus der BRD aber wie kommt die da hin.
ah, so das war es! Danke dafür!
Its an artillery shell
hello paw for reach .caw and watch greetings
Thank you Marcus!
😍
Miss zijn die stukken stof wel van een Duitse uniform
Dat zou zomaar kunnen hoor.
Hi, very cool videos ,really interessting locations and finds.
Did you ever went to the forest of Cleve,
where veritable took part?
Really would like to see something from my hometown, but you aren't allowed to detect anywhere, without permission. And its really hard to get one, if you are german yourself.
Last week I found a SS Treibstoff Kanister just lying on the surface in the woods.. just by walking around and taking a closer look to former positions ..
Everytime I See your Videos of Berlin, they remind me of the woods right behind our house. Thanks for your work, stay Safe and
"Schöne Grüsse aus Deutschland"
Super dik weer!
bedankt Rickkert!
Be warry carfoul,, it might go BOOM, no more you.
Yes I know Kurt, horrible things. so we treat it carefully. But thanks for your concerns.
I’d love to come to Germany and excavate some old spots
Where are you from, Mike?
The Netherlands
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting Love your videos! Thanks. My relatives comes from The Netherlands (Overijssel)! I live in Norway...
It was a Nazi Pacman 😂
please translate Indonesian on the video because not everyone can understand your language 🙏😆
It has Indonesian subtitles! There is an option to switch on CC.
Who else sees that face in in the thumbnail
Just you I guess? LOL
