Metal detected the creek side woods again today. Managed to find an old Atlas mason jar lid, an old Illinois-Pacific Glass Co. bottle circa 1902-1909, a vintage Bevin Brothers Manufacturing Co 13 star US flag bicycle hand bell circa 1890-1910, an old horseshoe, an old lantern knob patented Feb. 17th, 1868, 2 pieces of old chain, an old hinge, an old skeleton key door entry part, an old ornate corner furniture bracket, and an old heavy iron base of some sort. If anyone can add any info on any of my finds please chime in-no pun intended. lol IMG_0808.JPG IMG_0807.JPG IMG_0793.JPG IMG_0782 (2).JPG IMG_0784.JPG FullSizeRender (2).jpg IMG_0789.JPG View attachment 1293582 View attachment 1293583 IMG_0795.JPG IMG_0796.JPG IMG_0798.JPG IMG_0799.JPG IMG_0801.JPG IMG_0802.JPG

Check your lamp knob for a patent date and or a manufacturer mark, often these are overlooked.

Your bell(the dome shape with flag on it) is a bicycle bell cover/top.

Thanks releventchair. Any idea on how old the bell might be?

Nope.
Guessing the first half of the nineteen hundreds.
Found two or three similar online in pictures , but none the same.

There were also bike bells with a nut on top.
Not unlike your other dome shaped piece , which could be brass.
