Home and Creek-What is it?

[dignhistory]

The first set of pictures are from my house. I don't know what some on the items are. The spoon is stainless steal, one of the buttons that says Key on it would have been my Dads, he wore Key overalls. Also there are two Wheaties one is 1936 D and the other one is 1944. I am sorry but a couple of items up near the top were posted in a earlier post. The other things I would like to know what they are and the button what type of metal.

The second set of pictures are from a creek on my property, it is dry most of the time and people have been dumping there for a very long time. I think there will other interesting items to find. There is also a old car down there on the side of the creek, it is from the 1940's or 1950's and I don't know who put it there or why. I will take a picture of it sometimes. The dime in these pictures go with the first set.

Thank you for looking.

I am confused .. Which pieces do you need an ID on?

 

[nova treasure]

I will try to help,
1. part of a barn type hinge
2. thinking part of a water meter
3. part of a fireplace grate trivet
4. swivel connector
5. clock gear
the cobalt blue bottle was probably used for essential oils

the car in the creek, back in the day, it was easier to just pull the junk car to the back of the property and be rid of it. might be worth a few hundred bucks now in todays scrap prices.

cover for floor drain (well, more or less, mostly less)
cotter pin

Sorry I didn't explain that to well. The four larger items and the one that is round with a spring on it.

Thanks for looking. I do like to find iron objects but I really would like to find silver, the house is a hundred years so some has got to be there...

It makes sense about the barn type hinge, the round piece under it was found out where old barn was. It burned down a long time ago.
There is no water meter on my place we have a well. I would not even try and sell the car it would not be worth it. Thank you.

Here is are some ID's on a few of them

Still think the thing with the question mark above is a 6" floor drain cover. I'm getting no respect here. This could turn out bad for me.

Could very well be .. no argument from me on that one!


In Fact, when you put the pieces together, the glove fits! I believe you are perfectly right, Stanley .. It is a 6 inch drain cover, complete with the alignment tabs! Good call!

 

[High Plains Digger]

Good work on the photo. Now could you make me better looking. Warning: not much to work with.

And what did Stan refer to the other guy as? Must be Oliver. I assume that is your reference, but I don't know that quote so well. Mine was always "Sure, Eddie."

Much respect to all Thanks for the help. I like this forum and have fun looking at other peoples posts. I have spent hours on some of the items posted. Great job
