Also in the beginning of 2008 satisfied customers inform us about their new discoveries with one of our metal detectors. An old grave including human remains together with some copper rings, and valuable historical goat or sheep bells has been detected in Iran by using the Future 2005 and gold detector eXp 4000. 

The grave, probably the tomb of a shepherd, including its valuable objects has been located in a depth of 210 cm in clay soil. The ancient bells with sizes 10 cm, 12 cm, 15 cm length and 6 cm, 9 cm, 13 cm width show different forms and unique structures. Each bell includes 1, 2 or 3 small balls who create the pleasant sound when ringing the bell. In former times bells were hung on goats or sheep to keep evil spirits away, so does inhabitants tell.

Wine bottles from 17th century excavated

A small team of US customers excavated various old wine bottles while using the eXp 4000 in the first week. In total they have found more than 200 bottles, without counting the numerous broken onces which they have left in the treasure site. They found so many dutch rums, wines and onion bottles that they are running out of room at home. Kitchen and front room are all filled up with these fascinating bottles. The bottles are all dated from around 1620 - 1715 and probably were designed for dutch colonies. The treasure find has been made along the coast of Suriname.

On the camp site there were charred wood and also rocks who surrounded ancient fire places. Along with the bottles they found a Spanish silver sword and old silver coins.
