Finally have permission to hunt some good locations. Spent a few hours testing an area today and found a few strange items. Maybe one of you know what they are :)

I will be back soon to really search the property. I hope to have some good stuff to show you all soon. Might even find something worthy of a profile pic :coins:

Nice goodies! Don't know what they are, but top one maybe a Handel of some sort, the other item with 3 rings in it looks like a belt buckle or hair pin ? Just guessing.

Update: I went back and found a couple more items that I cannot identify. I was near a south LA bayou that was used heavily as a main mode of transportation in the early days, so some of these items may be marine related. I am also right across the street from an old plantation that dates to the late 1800's. Even though I have no clue what they are I think they are neat. I hope you enjoy.

Thank you, I did not think of hairpin. My brother says that its main purpose was as a hinge and I disagree so I am trying to figure it out :)
