Todays finds in the woods

[Mike95inNJ]

Got out today to a site I sorta stumbled on.I had seen something weird looking on google earth in the woods near my house so I headed out to see what it was.Turns out what I saw was old tires and piles of concrete and pipes.Alittle further in I saw a couple of built up cinderblocks sorta looked like a outdoor cooking area.Not really sure.After digging the usual shotgun shells I found a wheatie.Good sign.After a couple hours I had a 1935 merc,1960 rosie a beat up no date buffalo and 5 wheaties 1919, 1926, 1941, 1953, and a 1956.Also found this cool little liberty bell replica complete with the crack in it.Some ornate looking thing that resembles a precision screwdriver.Anyone ever see one of these things.Pictures don't really show the detail on it.Also a old looking possible pewter button.Also some mems and a Jefferson nickel.Newest coin found was a 1964 mem. Nice way to start my vacation.
Good Luck ,Mike

Mike,

Even though the google site was not what you thought, but it was worthwhile looking at. Awesome finds. There may be more stuff there. Here's a site to help ID the shotgun brass... http://members.shaw.ca/cartridge-corner/shotgun.htm

Really cool little Liberty Bell. Does the ornate thing-a-ma-jig have any moving parts to it? Any wording on it?

Nice work on Google.

That screwdriver is what's called a jewelers screwdriver or eyeglass screwdriver. The tip's missing. Various tips were inserted as to what was being worked on. It should turn as you hold the top with your index finger and turn with your other fingers. Used with one hand.

That's what I thought it was,but the end has a piece that slides off and it's threaded underneath that piece.I have a set of these screwdrivers.I just found it weird that it has ornate markings on it.Mine don't.Pretty cool though.
Thanks,Mike
