First hunt in a long time

[timbobwey]

Only got out for about an hour and it started to rain. Found a bunch of iron, some square nails, and what looks like some old farm equipment. Anyone know what these are? Also found an old bottle dump, mostly broken but got a few keepers.
Haven't used the detector in quite a while, but I figured I'd get out since I've got some extra time lately. I was having a blast until the weather came. Can't wait to get back out again.

First photo is of the height adjustment mechanism for a draw behind plow or rake.

Lever mounts to frame or draw bar, and chains fasten to wheel axel.

Apcomputing, thank you. Any idea on how old? The only similar pieces I've found online are McCormick hoarse drawn plows. I don't think the ones I found are quite that old, but I honestly don't know.

Looking at the build. (Which is a bit lightweight for tractor use.). I would say likely from a horse drawn implement.

Remember, horses and mules were used commonly right up until the end of WW2.

So... Maybe 1930s?

That's pretty cool, hopefully I'll find some coins at this site. Thank you for the info.
