Neat old Lock and Lid.......

[civilman1]

I only had around 15 min.'s to hunt at the house,had to pick up a wood stove for the living room.Managed to pick up this old lock(complete) that will be put under electrolisis,should turn out pretty good when I'm done.The other piece look's like a lid of some kind not sure,anyway,my take's for the day.

Nice'un Joe. I agree, it'll clean up nice. Looks like you moved right on top of a small cornucopia of Relics!

It looks like it might be a Keline brand R,R. lock. Nice find, Jimbob

Nice old 1800's lock Joe. What does it say on the keyhole cover?
That new yard looks like it will keep you two busy for some time.

Looks good Joe. I dug one that size at a 1840s house. It will make a very nice addition to your collection when cleaned. I thought the "lid" may be the top of a beer stein but I don't think those tops had holes in them but I'm not a beer expert like Modern Miner-LOL. HH, Quindy.

Nice finds my friend. That yard will be fun to search. Hope we get to see that lock later.

Your lid is a Pipe bowl cover like on the German Pipes

Great finds Joe, and yes the lid is a pipe lid. I love digging them

 

[MiniMe]

Pretty cool finds. To bad you didn't find the pipe to go with that Lid. Get those rain covers out, it's raining

Sweet find!
