Hi Neighbor !

steelheadwill · Jan 10, 2011

Greetings all!
I got out for my first dig in a while, and found items from 3 centuries,
Boo hoo, people have been here for four plus :laughing7:

Got a tombac and a blowhole button, 1942 Quarter, a brass whatsit, thought it might be a gaslight fixture, but no threads in the hole in back, too small for a coathook :dontknow:

a brass plate, maybe from a harmonica? 'Hi Neighbor!', Was the theme song for the Jack Kirkwood Radio Show 1920's
10G Full brass shotshell 'Winchester #10', I found a #12 before but not in this good condition.
The third wheel to my 'Speed racer' 1930's lead car toy, one more to go!
A Bulova 17J WW, copper case.
An odd token/slug, appears to be brass one side, Tin/pewter on the other.
Brass makeup compact with mirror back.
A small pendant with glass drilled for compass needle?
And a small solid brass bell, a game piece?
goin out today to find some more :thumbsup:

thanks for looking & HH to all !!

Nice items you found there. Here is a website for identifying shotgun shell brass. You may already have it? Couldn't read your brass well enough to get an ID.
Enjoy and HH,
Bunker

Candlewick lighter?
I've seen something similar before.
Does it have a hole going through it?

Thanks For all your replies!
The ID on 'Hi Neighbor' is great, My Dads beer.
the shotshell says "Winchester #10"
Will post that 'Coat hook' piece in Whatsit, it has a hole in the back, terminates about 12 mm into the piece, no threads.
how could I forget that hemweight! :dontknow:

Been too long since I got a coppa..
Thanks for looking & HH :thumbsup:

Hi Dave,
The acorn tipped item has been ID'ed as a wall hook of some sort,
There is a whatsit post with details.
The pendant, don't know :dontknow:

The drilled glass indicates something rotated inside, all I can think is compass :icon_scratch:

Thanks for looking! Herbie.
