I found this coin while metaldetecting in Croatia. And it's in extraordinary condition, especially obverse, which is why I love it. Just look at that eagle, and it even has some original bronze brownish color! First two photos are before cleaning and rest is after cleaning. I have some more Austro Hungarian coins and their coinage is one of my favourite!

First two photos are before cleaning and the rest is after cleaning. It even has some original bronze brownish color on the obverse! I love it so much because I've never found a coin with my metaldetector where every single detail is still there, just look at that eagle! And patina is really nice, it's a bit better on the obverse but still I fell in love with it😍

Hello! I was reorganizing my world coin collection when I noticed weird features on these brazilian coins. I did some research and I think these are die clashes and grease strikes, but I don't have as much knowledge about coin errors as you guys on this sub, can you confirm that these are die clashes and grese strikes or is it something else? Look closely at the coin 1(photo 4), it has raised mirrored year between the stripes (above the blue line). The coins have coin alignment, so the obverse and reverse have opposite orientations, and the "normal" year (I mean the one that is actually part of the design)is on the same place but opposite side(look at the years on photo 1) and is a dent in the field. I think that the dies clashed, and the year (which has the highest relief on the die, because on the coin the year is a dent in the field while everything else is raised) on one die left it's reverse on the other die, which then transferred that reverse of year to the coin, on the same place where the "normal" year is located but on the opposite side. The coin number 2 is the same case. Coin number 3 has the same thing but the numbers look blurry and messed up. I think that these were multiple clashes in the same place/with the same orientation of the dies. If these are die clashes then coin 4 had multiple die clashes (at least 3 I think) with slightly different orientations, and coin 5 had the same thing but more stretched across the coin / with bigger differences in die orientations in every clash. Then there is one 5 centavo coin with a really minor case of die clash, where only number 1 in year 1996 is visible. About grease strikes, look at the last 3 photos, the features that are marked in blue are very weak. Could this be a grease strike or something else? And now, as I'm writing this, I have noticed something else: is that a die crack on coin 1(photo 4)? - lower right from the right eye (from your perspective) of that guy, the crack is running from its head to the right. Thank you for reading this, these are just my assumtions on what errors these are, please comfirm if my assumptions are correct or is this something else. In advance, I really appreciate your help!

It's a badge from 1945 with Tito on it and inscription:"S Titom u ratu s Titom u miru" (with Tito in war with Tito in peace) which was a political slogan, I think.

Hello again from Croatia! I went again to the abandoned village and as always I found some ammo: shotgun shells, cartridges (with one that still had gunpowder in it, italian carcano 6,5x52mm, ww2), with two unknown rimmed cartridges (photo 10,11,12), any help with IDing is appreciated! Also found a dinar from 1965 and 2 cents, a religious pendant, a small bottle (probably for pills or some sort of medication). At the end of a trip I found a lead seal which I can't ID(last two photos), some sort of solider dog tag (photos 4,5) which I also can't ID and my last find was a cool post ww2 badge from 1945 with Tito on it, and inscription "S Titom u ratu s titom u miru" (with Tito in war with Tito in peace), which was a political slogan, I think (photos 1,2,3). Any help with IDing finds that I wasn't able to ID is appreciated!

I love how good first two photos turned out, first one exactly captured the moment of a touchdown and second turned out unusually clear with my Huawei Y6 2019. I'm not a proffessional photographer or anything so I'm very happy with this.

Filmed with my phone, Huawei Y6 2019, so not the best quality of the video but still it brings me joy. I noticed that they still didn't replace the sign (rest in pieces) that was destroyed by the Croatia Airlines A220-300 that veered off the runway. That aircraft (9A-CAN, I think) is still parked on the apron and is visible behind some bushes in the video on the right. This is just one video, I will share more videos and photos.

I recieved as a gift these sleeves and I'm wondering if they are made of pvc. I did the copper wire test (cut two corners of one of them for the test, visible in the last photo), it doesn't burn green, so shouldn't be pvc. They don't have any smell and are crystal clear, no cloudy effect. But they are thin, aren't rigid and don't make a white line when I fold them. So, I'm not sure if these are pvc or not. If these are pvc, where can I buy pvc free sleeves and how expensive are they? Your help is very appreciated!

I'm very happy with this trip. Find of the day would be for me the italian 5 centesimi (1/20 lira) coin from 1940. Also found a nice button from german ww2 uniform and cool italian clip for 6 carcano 6,5x52mm bullets. This village is full of old ammo, so of course I found some cartridges but one is my favourite: american huge cartridge from 1942 (photo 15,16), I think it's .50 caliber. This is the largest cartridge I ever found. I will go again detecting to that village as soon as I get rid of all exams as school year is coming to an end.

Over a few last weeks, I became worried that clipping pens in sleeves to prevent them from falling out will deform and break the clips. Do you know if this is harmless or not? The pens in photos are (from top to bottom, looking at photo 2): no brand fountain pen, Montblanc Meisterstück rollerball from late 80s, Montblanc Noblesse rollerball from early 80s and Pilot Frixionball (all inherited except the Pilot Frixionball).
