Crotal bell and a watzit

[kieser sousa/rip]

Headed out this morning to a spot were i have been looking for a lost ring.When i got there the water was quite high so i couldn't get to were i think it is.So i decided to go to my brothers place and look around an old foundation that he has in his front yard.Found a #2 crotal bell with B W stamped on the bottom and a watzit,about the size of a nickel with a floral design on both sides.I'm thinking some sort of zipper pull maybe.Just killin time till i can get my brother and buddy Dan to get there #*@!!! together and take me to the old fort/trading post site they got lined up.I think there scared I'll find all the good stuff so there making excuses knowing that starting next week I'll be to busy with work to go along ! I was also hopeing someone might know what the B W stands for ?
