I think what is being asked is-

In what country is the house and garden?


That could be the remnants of a parlor pistol.

Sorry for the confusion, I believe you are correct on the pistol, I had never heard of them. Thank you, that is why I come to the experts👍

1667 British coin seems early for Indiana. Wondering how it got there.
I will try and get a picture and post. I did not know about the copied coins. Is there any way to date them, an era? He also found a flat button, looks like early 1800. The item with a P I have no idea, thanks

That's not a P. It's a Wunjo Rune.
Meaning- Joy, Harmony....

All things Norse and pagan are popular again

That's what came up when I searched, looks like a p,lol, the owner is in his 70s, found them when he was a kid. I assume they have been around a while. Thanks
