I love the bell. I just posted one today that looks the same. Any idea what of it's age or origin.

I saw one on ebay almost identical.That was a house/dinner bell from 1800's. My mother owns 2 smaller identical bells that were dated around 1780. The area I found this is old,I had already dug up a coin from 1741 along with old bottles.

The one I dug was in a church yard that dates back to the 1760's. Seems to be consistent. Thanks
