Found a few neat relics from a home built in 1880 in Florissant, Missouri.. A harmonica reed, some sort of ornate handle to something, and a advertisement fob for McCormick Line tractors from the 1920's...

Nice...the handle appears silver-ish...any marks?

I dont see any marks that would identify it as Silver.... i thought it was just becasue of how clean it came out of the ground but its very thin, light material so aluminum is sounding right unfortunately.. but i think it is a very old ornate cup handle which is still pretty cool. :)

Yep...a closer look revealed aluminum...I guess it was just wishful thinking! Ddf
