Hi, first hunt with my AT Pro. I found one nail, one piece of steel and these two parts. One looks like a gasket and the other a drain plug. The drain plug is brass and the gasket is copper or brass - as a magnetic won't stick to either. Both parts were in the same hole

My grandpa and dad had a 1924 Farmall "Regular" and '50 Farmall M so the parts could go to one of those. They also had two McCormick Deering milking machines. They also had an old 30's or 40's Dodge 1 ton truck and a 52 IH truck.

Any ideas?

Keep digging...you might find the whole truck. There might be coins in the ashtray.

I think what you think is a gasket is actually a clock plate. Nice finds.

welcome, littleboss...hope your area of North Texas is filled with fun and ground hunting.

Saw your location, and as a former Farmers Branch-er, I can tell you that there are great places to hunt all in the metroplex.

Dig it all, and you will learn that machine quickly.

Welcome from Illinois. I agree with the group that said clock plate on the item you thought was a gasket.
