A little silver, copper and tombacs

[trapperart]

Found this stuff last night. Thought the copper was slick until electrolysis showed draped bust. The tombacs are pretty cool. Have no idea what the iron is, but looks like it was used a good bit. Looking forward to the weekend, got a big permission from a builder right in the middle of some history. Good luck to all. Art

I really need to start doing my homework again. I've gotten soooo lazy on researching!

Good job!

I like the octagonal tombac, most likely a large cufflink. The "nipple" style tombac button is a little different.

That octagonal tombac caught my attention as well, looks like the tutor rose

Sweet finds and another great permission trapperart. Do you use an old phone charger or a battery charger to do electrolysis on your coins?

More nice digs Art. I have an iron piece just like that. Haven't figured out what it is yet. That slot is just too small for a handle to support something that hefty.

It's an old battery charger, the kind for hand tools
