This stuff was found in the same general area earlier today, but not together.
Thought I had a brass shotgun shell initially, they are old, so that would have been cool, but when a little dirt was removed, it revealed quite a different item. Any of you gals got any idea as to the date of this cologne? What is the other piece? Has a knob for pushing something up, but too thin for lipstick.
Then there is the little compact (?) case, had a broken mirror and a little gold plating inside
Oh, yea, almost forgot the little pin. I'm sure it had some guilding or plating, but sadly it is all gone. All this was across from an old school circa 1895 in a vacant lot. Some coins found, but nothing too cool. oldest was a 1912 wheatie, a buffalo nickel with no discernable date and two clad dimes. Am going back, but was rained out today.
Sometimes it is more interesting to find everyday items, coins are not all there is. (of course that could just be sour grapes)
