1800s Lid from reusable condom tin.

[TulsaBill]

Found it on first generation 80 acre farm. Back then the area was indian territory.
3 widows Agnes-Mable-Beckie Birth control was illegal in the day. This item was very expensive .50 to $1
The lid is smashed and not so photogenic.

Did the "Tin Man" use a condom tin, or tin condom? Sub PS: If you found something that old there, go get the coins and other relics too!

lol, too funny, seems them tins got around lol, I've found 3 so far here in Canada north of Kingston and it's always been the lids and never the bottom part of the tin. Also I'm content with that, the ones found here have been so far, down non maintained side roads that are and probably were the same way ever since they were cleared according to lot and road allowance's surveyed.

Sometimes I wonder if I ever dug up the same coins I myself lost 40 years ago. But even more bizarre I wonder if anyone ever dug up the same condom tin that their own Great Great Grandfather lost and that's why the person who found it is even alive and here in the first place.
