I served in the british army in theR royal Scots. Odd but growing up I always had an interest in the German army. They had the best uniforms, the best shaped helmets, without a doubt the best weapons and were way in front of all other armies around the world. I have money from around the world where my grandfather served in the army sadly I have no German money from WW2. I'll have to add some to my collection. It must be amazing when you guys find items from that era in Germany and other areas of conflict. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us who have an interest.
Fantastische video weer. Dat RAD porselein is al helemaal te gek, maar die SS-EKM's uiteraard ook fantastisch. Mocht het nog niet in de comments staan (zijn er veeeel te veel), SS PZ-Grenadier Ausbildungs und Ersatz Bataillon (A.u.E. BTL). Zijn de gasten die SS-ers trainden (en ersatz) vervingen (moesten zelf uiteindelijk ook gaan knokken). Cheers
Great video as usual Mike. It was entertaining and it is nice to see that you got the chance to check an item off of your bucket list. Also, thanks for educating your viewers on the way the Germans utilized their "dog tags". This kind of information is always appreciated. It is hard not to imagine how the things you find end up in the places you visit. Take care Mike..
Glad you enjoyed it Gary. I have some things on the list but gave up on them to be honest because some of them are such a long shot, but this proves that you should never stop believing :)
I'm always enjoy viewing yours and Chris' channels as you really put you're enthusiasm & excitement into a hobby you both enjoy so much . You're both also so willing to explain your finds and educate us. Be Wee, Be Careful and if no further videos this year a Merry Christmas & Joyeux New Year, from a Canadian follower.... tjk (Ted)....
Always enjoy going on hunts with you guys. All the way over in OKLAHOMA, USA. Thanks Mike! It's like I'm standing there with you. I was working on my old car when the notification went off. TIME FOR A BREAK
Great video!! I really enjoy watching your videos and the history lessons when you explain your finds. Keep the great videos coming!! You should get the Apex Ripper 5x8 coil it is amazing really crisp signals, it is definitely my favorite.
What a cracking hunt hows your weekend been hope that you had a verry good one top finds kerp up the hard work your vmfind that somethings special soon top
Hi Mike! The big cast metal piece looks like a section of a steam radiator for heating imagine several bolted together. Interesting explanation on the dog tag halves. Now what do the markings mean?
Hi Jim, both are of the exact same unit. this is what they both have on them: ss pz. gren. aue btl. 1. if you google that you'll find some pages that state that these were used by member of the 1. SS Panzerdivision Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler. Not the must friendly bunch.. :-s
By far my favorite channel on UA-cam. Excellent finds bro! Always look forward to a woohoo! Is there any kind of data base that you could look up the unit history for the tags? Keep the excellent videos coming bro!
thanks, I appreciate it! No, no database unfortunately, but according to some resources these dog tags belonged to soldiers of the 1. SS Panzerdivision Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler. And since they have the old SS ruins on the front and back, they are early war dog tags. Something I found out after editing the video.
Hey Mike! WELL DONE with the dog tags and adventure with your friends, a good day for all of you. Think back to the small plastic badges you find once in a while, the ones sold to raise funds for the German war effort. Thought I had one 2 days ago, in a bag of mixed British medals & badges that I was asked to look at at work. It wasn't...BUT... quick research and it turned out to be a Bruno Mulde badge for Hitlers visit to Bremen in 1939. Who knew that a small piece of plastic could be so exciting? Thanks for the video AND education sir! Take care!!
Hi Marty, You mean WHW badges we found earlier (Winter Hilfswerke). But what an exciting find! Never heard of that badge before but sounds very cool. Thanks for watching and your comment!
oh my.. i haven`t watched not even 1/3 of DDD`s videos and now it turns out that IronMike has a channel too! until i watch ALL (probably not possible haha) of the videos it will be spring again, thanks! :>
Voor 2019 had ik nog nooit gemarkeerd porcelein gevonden. Als je dan op zo'n plek komt dan sta je wel even te kijken.. maar komt goed, ga je vast wel eens vinden :)
That metal-tag with grommet-closure @ 13:00-mins with serial-# and pig-logo looks like a "livestock-tag"... To mark/trace/identify domestic-livestock in herds (be thems cows, pigs, sheep, etc); one common method was to pierce the EAR of the livestock and clip-on a metal-tag like that with serial-#; for tracking/weighing/selling of individual animals that would be going to slaughterhouses. (Since that tag has a pig-logo; it almost-certainly was clipped to the *ear of a domestic-pig* that was raised for slaughter/meat-production.) Metal ear-tags like that are still relatively-common to this day; for identifying individual animals on livestock-farms.
You only need a fairly basic detector for your work because you don't need target separation. You want to dig up pretty much everything that's metal. Anyone who tells you otherwise isn't taking into account what you are trying to do. Most detectorists go out on fields wanting to discriminate against iron - on 'trashy' farm sites a more sophisticated machine is the way to go. if was out there on your sites I'd be digging up every metal target.
Gaafe video Mike die halve dog tags meschien dat de Duitsers aan stukken zijn geschoten als er een barage van de Engelsen of Amerikanen komt en ze krijgen granaten op hun dak Dan kan Ik mij voorstellen dat er heel wat mensen zijn verpulverd🙂
Zijn twee onderhelftjes van de EKM. Waarschijnlijk verloren door diegene die ze meenam nadat zijn mede soldaten gevallen waren (of werd gepakt door de Sovjets en heeft zn zakken moeten legen). Dat zou de meest logsiche verklaring zijn.
I have a question that came to mind as I watched this....I have seen Mike, Chris, Nick, and others who do the WWII metal detecting and magnet fishing recover numerous German dog tags....my question is, how did Germany identify their dead? The tags just depict name of the unit, not the name of the soldier who died. For example a US dog tag has the soldiers name serial number religious preference if wanted and blood type ie John Doe 123456789 catholic O pos. A US soldiers unit is known by patch worn on sleeve.
@@IronMikeMetaldetecting Haha!! Love your videos! I live in utah in the US and there is no WWll relics here mostly colonial era areas near the east coast.. Unfortunately here in the west in utah there is not any good metal detecting AT ALL here! So i watch you and wow im amazed! You are so lucky to be where you are! I give you props!
Mike, do you ever do any research on the soldier that the dog tag identified? Or try to contact the family to see if they may want it? Was just curious. Great video as always.
I'm quite certain there are some institutions (Ministry of defense or a war archive of some sort) where you can check or report these kind of stuff (dog tags etc). This person is probably not alive anymore but I think his family should get his tags back and, perhaps, the info where it was found.
We have tried it in the past but due to strict German privacy laws authorities dont hand out information about the person who wore these tags. Only thing they do is register that I have the dogtag in my possession which is pretty much useless. I know that is very different from how it works in the US. So if I ever come across a US dog tag I will try and trace the family.

Helloo turkey 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷👏👏👏

Thanks for dropping by! Just received the bigger Apex coil. Need to try it out though but love the machine so I'll bet it will do good.
Awesome finding. Thank you for Texas
Thanks for watching Jeff!
What a cracking hunt hows your weekend been hope that you had a verry good one top finds kerp up the hard work your vmfind that somethings special soon top
Thanks 👍
The object found on the surface looks like one vertical slice of a heating radiator. Cool videos!
Yes, that’s a badger skull. Looking at the wear on the molars it was a quite old individual
Cool thanks! Thought it was, but an old one? Seems a bit small for a mature badger?
When I look at all those porcelain pieces, I wonder how many will foot back together. Great video mike!
You and me both! But I'm not even going to try..

it is one of the elements of the radiator probably made of a cast iron alloy
Mike thanks 🤩
I got fed 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Hope it tasted any good? :)
7:13 it's a part of an old rip heater like you found it in the ground. Stay healthy and keep finding good👍

Is that an ear tag for live stock.love your vibe fella,love your efforts stay safe man 💚✌
Always the same Mike ( so amazing ) damn you lucky crazy guy 😂 💪 greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪
Omg its everywhere
LOL yes. Such a weird place. Before last year I have never found one piece of 'nazi porcelain' and then coming across a spot like that..
yeah, its a heater (radiator). I have seen such bulky pieces on some yt video in color filming german cities and ruble after the war.
Hot water radiator section for building heat.
Nice Video mike
At 7.10....it looks like a part of the heater you found in the ground
have you found out which unit the dogtag is from?
SS tags were very nice congrats. If that porcelain had the Nazi emblems that would have been a gold mine.
Some of them did!
Pigs ear tag 👍🏼
SUPER POZDRAWIAM MIKE🙋♂️👍
Dzięki za opiekę Adam! :)
Screw me? Nooo...scrooo yoòoou.
Indonesia is here, greetings, bro🙏😄
Great vid.
Thanks John!
It looks like a lot of remains of the Second World War in the Berlin jungle😂
oh my.. i haven`t watched not even 1/3 of DDD`s videos
and now it turns out that IronMike has a channel too!
until i watch ALL (probably not possible haha) of the videos it will be spring again, thanks! :>
Welcome to the channel! Started off where DDD (unfortunately) ended I guess.
I Think it could be Grenadier Ausbildungs und Ersatz Battailon at the 1/4 Dog Tag.
Ik zou al blij zijn met 1 stukje porcelein, al staat er maar een klein stukje op, pffff, jaloeeers! Gave video weer Mike!
Voor 2019 had ik nog nooit gemarkeerd porcelein gevonden. Als je dan op zo'n plek komt dan sta je wel even te kijken..
maar komt goed, ga je vast wel eens vinden :)

I just had my own ooooh moment when I seen the notification good stuff big balls
LOL. thanks Heath, stay safe buddy
Do I see it correctly that the tags are from the same unit? SS Pz Gren Au Bn 1?
Ik zoek met een garret ace 150 en ik heb al een leuke verzameling!
What do you do with your finds do you send them to museum or do you keep them?
The metal piece around 7:00 is a segment of a cast iron radiator.
12:46 ik denk dat dit een plaatje is om vee mee te markeren, een soort "dogtag" voor varkens!
I've got a small teapot if one of your viewers wants to buy it, it's no good to me, i'm in Poland, this is a good channel i enjoy it
Thanks for sharing!
Looks like the end of an old building steam heater
Looks like a section of heater.

LOL Mickey?! Thanks Ronald!
My bad, ment to say Mikey! Oh well, at least u got a laugh out of it.
That's a livestock ear tag and the large iron piece is a section of a radiator.
One piece of the large one you decided not to dig
I'm pretty sure that part you found is part of a radiator for heating
I could made my dinner kit with all this porcelain. 😂
