A couple wheats and relics and a gallon of sweat.

[neodetectorist]

It is a hot one so I hit the woods.
Here are a few finds
The wheats are 1936 and 1944


The one piece is the wick adjuster. It says "Made in America" and has some fancy on it.
Inside has what maybe OC15
Any ideas of a date on this.


The cartridge is one on the largest I found.
On the primer side, there is 5 on the left, F on the top, and 86 on the right.
What caliper and age is this?

Thanks

Looks like the F 5 86 is the designation for a .45 caliber government cartridge made at the Frankford Arsenal in the 5th month of 1886.
