Got sterling silver bell today out of the dump. The clapper and chain are copper but rest is silver. I was shocked when I washed it ! The cap gun as I am calling it is same weight and size as a real one. And made out of iron. But chambers are solid. I dug parts of a oil lamp then a few minutes later got the solid copper case flash light. This dump is so mixed up. I didn't even start digging till nearly 3 due to weather. Sounds like I might be back to work soon so hammering site while I can.
