Hey guys, have a few questions for anyone that could help. I'm from up in wisconsin and the other day I found my cheap metal detector that I got probably 15 years ago and decided to mess around with it. So I took it behind my girlfriends barn which was built around 1900 and instantly got hits. If the attachment works, this was some of the stuff I found in the first hour of digging so far. If anyone can possibly give me a date on some of the items that would help me a lot. Thanks!
 

LOOKS LIKE EARLY 1900s STUFF
 

I'm pretty sure there is a bottle forum on here further down the page they might be able to give some real close dates.They will probably want some pictures of the bottom of the bottles.I agree with Casper but maybe the bottle guys can help even more.

I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard Osseo! Take a look at Sub-Forums: Wisconsin for information (i.e., clubs, etc.) directly related to your state.

The vase could be vasoline glass, put it under a black light and see if it glows.
 

Most of it looks to be from just before 1930 to about the mid 40s.
 

Thanks for the replies everyone. I plan on doing some more digging this weekend. I'll post on what else I dig up!
 

all the stuff looks like mid 1920s to 1930.
 

Yeah I could find some dates on a few items looking online. The top metal rexatnlge piece is a traveling soap box made in 1910. It says soap on the cover of it in cursive.
 

Cool finds. I like the "2" on the broke plate.
