I was hunting at an 1805 home in the middle of my town yesterday and today that has been hunted by me and a friend before (we found 1901 Barber, buffalo, may teens and twenties Wheaties) and yesterday I found a brass object that no one that I know can identify.
It is a bust of a man with a threaded bottom for screwing on to something and a holed extension on the back for ?? (ring, chain). It has "Pat Applied For" on the back, and what many folks say looks like "England" on the left side of the mans head (I can't see the D on the end). It is very comfortable when gripped from above with two fingers.
Anybody have suggestions as to what it is? Google hasn't helped.
I have been hunting TTF with my 6x8 coil on my ETrac and swinging slowly to find these items.
Other finds from this yard are 1895 Indian Head (my first IH in 4.5 years), a 1944 P silver nickel, four Wheaties 2 teens and 2 twenties, and a copper flat button.
This yard has been good to me but I would really love to know what the bust is. It seems to me that it could be a plumbing fixture pull or something.
Thanks for any help you can give on ID for this item.
