A relic kind of day. Crotal bell, Model T hubcap, silver ring, buckle thing?

[Johncoho]

I had a 3 hour hunt yesterday afternoon and mostly found old artifacts. A model T hubcap, an obsolete 22 hornet bullet, a play dime, a nice no 1 crotal bell, a small sterling ring, a reins guide, a really unique whatever that looks like a representation of Eve taking a bite out of the apple and the serpent wrapped around her arm, and 3 Wheat pennies, 2 1941's and 1 really toasted 1911. I added more pictures of the buckle thing so you can see the back and a quarter for size reference. Any help on what this thing was used for would be great. Happy hunting and thanks for looking.

Congrats on the Crotal bell and other good finds.

Nice finds! Looks like pennies come out of your soil in pretty good condition. A crotal bell is on my bucket list.....

The pennies come out not so great. The cleaning makes them more presentable. Andres pencils and a brass brush for non key dates.

I got permission at that old insulbrick house a couple of weeks ago and I can say for sure it was never detected before. I have hit it about six times and it is now pretty well picked clean. 7 silver coins, 4 Indian heads, a pile of older wheat pennies, 2 silver rings, and yesterday a few artifacts.

Nice bunch of finds. Congrats. I found an old Oldsmobile hubcap that’s the same size and shape and researched it to 1924.

Your buckle looks like half of a sash buckle. I'd get back to that place and see if you can find the other half. Very nice relics.

Nice hunt Man! The mystery find is a watch fob - for the pocket watch. This thing was hanging out of the pocket so the gentleman could easy pull out the pocket watch out of the pocket. I saw similar things in another forums.Admiral Byrd Vintage Watch Fob Compass w/ Penguins
