So I've been out the last few days in the same general area. These are a few of my finds. barber dime.jpg bullet n button.jpg truck n key.jpg The dime is a barber but its in real bad shape date unreadable but still cool because its my first barber ever!!! So way to go me!!! I know it has to be between 1910-1918. The truck and key are just neat little pieces that just make you wonder? I have no idea what the key was used for or why it is the way it is but the top of the key is ornate and pretty sweet looking. The toy was a red fire truck made by MANOIL. Now for my favorite the button!!! This was my first button of this kind, the front is dented and cracked a little and the back is not readable but still has the loop other than that very beautiful button. The bullets where all found in the same exact area and all are the same but one, its amazing how heavy they are. Once again I have not found any bullets like these before very cool though. I hope everyone enjoys and happy hunting.

nice digs. The key reminds me of a lamp key switch.

The button is a "Great Seal" button... if I am not mistaken, 1902 until present, the backmark is key to dating the button.

Manoil was famous for their lead toy soldiers... nice old fire truck.

Well done sir!
