A great day with, 2 worthy finds!

The Swed Hunther · Oct 25, 2010

Me and Erik was out on the schoolyard site again, and did strike a few finds, some more coins, and shells. I was on a party in the weekend my mother in law's 50Th birthday. In the end every was a bit drunk and i asked her man about the place, if something has happend there tho Ive not heard anything since i moved here. But its strange to find shells all over the both schoolyards? This time we did find a 9mm handgun shell. Well, he did not say much but, just quoted ''Much has happend there..'' Then my mother in law jumped over him and changed subject. hmmm...?

This time i post 2 of my nicest finds of this hunt, a buckle that was about 16 inches down :headbang:

All the buckle hero's, is anybody familiar about this model/age?

And in i have heard many that have found rings and so on in the flower bed, so i tried and i did find a object that is for me very unusual, i have never in my life seen one of this and don't have a clue about age but i have googled it up and it is a Ewiger calender, info about this one would help me!
Thx for watching. :thumbsup:

Actually, I do like the calendar. I suppose it is a 'perpetual' calendar, right?
Looks like there's only 7 months on the back. Kind of short time for you guys there, eh?

Almost looks like the calender fobs/thingies/can't remember what they are called, that we have here in America from the 1840-1860's era.
Be great to pinpoint a date on that item.
really, really cool item.

Best, Erik

Nice finds! :icon_thumright:

The Swed Hunther · Oct 26, 2010

Thx you all fore the nice comments! :laughing9:

Yup Carl, hope some one recognise this one sooner or later.
And that's true, example Thursday = Torsdag, in Swedish. Torsdag: Thor's Day = The lightning god Thor. So, we Swed's still rock :headbang:

A weird find but a nice find :laughing7:

Erik, we talk later.

Thx for watching all!
Happy Hunthing!//Swed

I must be pretty dense! The names on the back are days! Dohhhh!
Yep, eternal = perpetual. That's a cool find for sure!

Hi - I believe Wednesday in English stems from Woden's day.....and I don't remember Tuesday, but believe it's also Norse.

Check eBay for a similar item - you can find most anything there :laughing7:

Yes, please drop me a PM when you have a chance....

Beste hilsen fra New York!
