Had about a five hour hunt today at the old school site and the ground gave up some more history.
Top left to right: The third ink well lid and some kind of smaller flip lid to something.
Left: couple shot shell bases third one soaking to try to identify.
Center Left: 32 cal. pulled bullet with partial case on slug, 32 cal. case (pieces not found together), brass rivits
Center Right: Metal cuff button, Military cuff button, glass inlaid pin (center destroyed)
Right: Toasted 1893 IH, 1930 Wheat, 1915 Buffalo
This guys another first for me and seems to be in pretty good shape.
I can't read the whole backmark due to the loop bent down and don't want to mess with it. What I can see is D E V (loop) & Co.- Bottom has N.A. A quick search found Devlin & Co. of NY made buttons around 1860. The N.A. is a bit confusing since this should not be an abbreviation for New York. This button appears to be newer or in damn good shape. I'm guessing early 1900"s from the front eagle design.
