Went out for a couple hours and my favorite little schoolyard just keeps giving me interesting finds.
I thought the curved iron bit was a horseshoe when I was digging, now, I haven't a clue. It weighs in at a full half pound. So, it's pretty solid. To me it looks as if it MIGHT have had a sharpened edge at one time. It looks whole to me, not like it was broken off something.
The tie clip/cufflink looks plated.
The earring is stainless.
The fishing weight is another interesting/strange piece. It has the beginnings of the white patina and it's marked for 1/2 ounce. So, I figure it was manufactured but the bottom looks like it was carved? Afraid I don't know much about fishing weights.
The tiny little seahorse charm was, well, charming.
The button is interestingly designed but the back was all corroded. It might be a current button or a hundred years old.
The wheat cent was nice. 55-D.
The rest just kept my interest in-between.
Funny, i figure this place has been hit before but there still should be silver, somewhere!
Anyway, a nice lil hunt overall. Very interesting.
Thanks for peeking.
