An almost all "B" day, plus the key to my heart... 5 pics
Was a big day for "B"s for me. Buttons, buckles and bullets.
One button has a nice flower design on it, another has a web like design with a little gilt left on it, the rest are typical flatties.
The buckles are nice, the small shoe buckle looks like it was silver plated.
Nice 2 ringer, a couple of bucky balls, a musket ball, and what appears to be a chewed up musket ball. Supposedly the troops would chew on bullets to make their mouths moist when they were thirsty... Must have played havoc on the teeth for sure!
Also found was this real nice heart pendant. Still has its loop and everything, the loop is just bent down.
And last, I stopped by a friends mid 30's house, found a handful of older clad, a lost wedding ring that I didn't get a picture of and this key. I thought at first it was a clock key, but after looking at it a little more, I believe it might have been an old metal skates key.
