Last hunt's best find was an 1858 Flying Eagle cent.

It's a little hard to read, but from the rim detail it looks like it was dropped in the 1860s.
I do like finding these solid brass buckles. Dug numerous modern horse harnesses here, but they have metal buckles and fittings that are brass-plated, not solid like these two.

What farm field hunt does not yield a headstamp or two? These are all 20th century but Western "Field" and U S "Climax" are the earlier ones; the offset of the lettering on the U S headstamp is unusual.

Found an iron door panel to an electric stater box with this logo riveted to it. I drilled out the rivets to remove this metal label. This is an earlier logo version of a company that was founded in the first decade of the 20th century.

Came across an area of ground that had pieces of quartz strewn about. This one caught my eye as a piece that may have been worked to a point, not certain.

Must have been near one of the farm's old dump sites to find this Schick razor. This particular model is probably from the 1950s.
