Weird metal tube (now dented) found metal detecting in SE Iowa on a farmstead that stood from the 1890s-1960s. Seems to be made of copper, found 4" down, and has a bat-like symbol on one end. It's closed on both ends and feels hollow.

While metal detecting an early 1800s homestead in Ontario π¨π¦ I came across a few of these. I just got finished using reverse electrolysis on one and thought y'all would enjoy the share. (Is it possible to rebuild an old reed?)

Found in a kids playground in the Netherlands while metal detecting. Unfortunately I didn't take before pictures as I didn't know it was Jordanian. These are taken after I have cleaned it with a dremel using a soft brush.
