Medieval Crucifix Found with the MANTICORE in Denmark

While out detecting with the Minelab MANTICORE and the M15 coil, just a few minutes into the session — and in the rain — I received a clear signal.

Moments later, I was blessed with a truly beautiful find: a gold-plated silver crucifix.

It dates back to medieval times, around the year 1350, and was discovered in Denmark.

A rare and moving piece of history to recover from the earth.
