Historical introduction: prices, events and dates refer to the original publication.

On Friday 15 February, the third issue of Detektor revue was published, this time on schedule. What can you look forward to in the third issue? First up is the first part of a post by Daniel Minár from the Difrologický klub on the Czechoslovak Light Tank vz. 35(t), which, following the Munich Agreement, saw action in the ranks of the Wehrmacht as the Panzerkampfwagen 35(t). Active treasure hunters will certainly be interested in the conclusion of the interview with conservator Dušan Perlík or the next instalment of Jezer’s series on lead seals. For numismatists, we have prepared a continuation of the overview of Czechoslovak ‘svátosky’ B. Přibila’s or Igram’s article on the value of historical currency. Of course, we haven’t forgotten the stories and photographs of successful finds, whether it’s a unique discovery of a hoard of German war decorations or two preserving jars from the Sudetenland. In this third issue, we continue to publish competition entries sent in by our readers, this time penned by Degrell on the legendary Stengun submachine gun. From our regular features, we also offer an illustrated short story by one of our authors and the ‘A’ series. A ‘gibiš’ refers to ammunition. Archaeology relates to post Z. Jarchovský’s piece on the milestone anniversary of the gold rush in Stradonice, legislation and metal detectors as seen by KHH, or the comprehensive editorial piece on the case of the burnt-out Prague flat and the press conference on this case organised by the Institute of Archaeology of the Czech Academy of Sciences. We will also be introducing, for the first time, a series of humorous cartoons by our colleague Arnošt Bechr.
