Woody wood pecker glass that is.What were you thinking?:laughing7: Saw it in the leaves at a old grove.Tried 3 different places today 1 old one and 2 new ones.1st new one was a wash out.The old place just had clad.So tried one other i have been looking at for few years but figured was a crap shoot.Hunted it for several hours only getting a strange hand made ID tag front"CAMP 187 POST OF A" The 8 could be a 3 or 5.Back says" abbreviated un readable name,then SHAMOKIN pa may 16 18??" Year may be 89 but not sure. Shamokin was founded in 1864 so it is not older.

Also got a sleigh bell and a 1907 barber dime.My scrap bucket made out well with a few pounds of brass and copper.Any day you get a barber is a good day.

Great finds !!:icon_thumright:
Keep @ it and HH !! :hello2:
 

I had those glasses as a kid, great job on the barber
 

At first I thought that might be one of the Mysterious Brass Two-Hole Thingys that we had a 300 reply post trying to ID...but it's not one of those. Looks like a keychain or similar item.
 

Actually got a id on this.It is a id tag from the Enterprise coal mine which was destroyed in 1895 then rebuilt.Miners would hang them on board while in mine.And date on tag is 1889.
