Couldn't take the heat. (Pictures added)

Made for about an hour, and had to quit. Too Hot. The clock wheel came from Waco, the rest I found this morning in the heat.

Re: Couldn't take the heat.

I hunt those EARLY morning trips in order to avoid the heat.
At least you got out!!!
 
Re: Couldn't take the heat.

The top item looks like a Sword Hanger!

Is there any design on the other side of it?

Thats what I thought it was. There is no design on it that I can see. In the same area is where I found the wreath buckle that I have posted in Best Finds.

Could you post a clearer photo with something for scale?
 
Re: Couldn't take the heat.

Sorry the pictures are not as clear as everyone would like, but this is the best I could do. Worked on it a little. Hope this is better.

I would be pounding that area for the tongue, heat or no heat. Great finds
 
Re: Couldn't take the heat. (Pictures added)

I have pounded that area day, after day. Heat, or not. I'm going to keep looking everytime I go to this area.

Keep up the good work. That is most certainly a sword hanger. :thumbsup:

Agreed. If you look close at the hanger does it have a design on it or is it smooth? Some have a very slight raised design on them. You will have to look vey close to see it.

Excellent finds !! Heat or not..sounds like a sweet hot spot for relics ..wish we had more of those up here ..
 
Re: Couldn't take the heat. (Pictures added)

I have looked the hanger over pretty good. Its crusty, and hard to see anything. I didn't want to damage it. I keep checking it to see if I missed anything though.
 
Re: Couldn't take the heat. (Pictures added)

Yes I have a found Republic of Texas Army Staff button, Texas Navy buttons, Texas Marine corp. button, lots of flat buttons, flower buttons, and one flat button with US on front of it, and United States on the back. I believe the Wreath buckle came from the same period. Today I found to top part of Texas Navy Button. It is in the upper left of the photo. Added some pictures of the other buttons.

This is the only things I've found that relates to whisky. I wish I could find a complete bottle. Maybe I'll be lucky one day, and happen up on one.
