Beautiful 1850s Token - Magnetic Powder & Pills for Insects & Rats!

[mangum]

I got out Saturday with my buddy Chuck & we checked out some new permissions but most were too overgrown. We ended the day at a site I’ve been to 5-6 times & we both did pretty good! They recently disced the tobacco fields so that helped a lot. My best find is the 1850s token advertising “Magnetic Powder & Pills for Insects & Rats”! Quite an interesting find! I included an advertisement from the 1850s as well. My buddy Chuck found a really nice Eagle A artillery button from the Civil War. So glad the cooler weather is here!

Nice gids Magnum, Could that what's it be part of an old car truck latch?

What is it ? its a part of the padlock that someone destroyed.
Its a "2" lever lock. Search "yuma prison padlock" not very many combinations on 2 lever.


Nice finds.
