"I plowed the farm today"

My usual farm spot turned up another assortment for me today.
*Asst'd old shotgun shell heads, two small casings, and some lead pieces.
*1939 & 1944 wheat pennies.
*A 1948 "Fort Dodge" vaccination tag. I think Fort Dodge is in Iowa, so this dog had a loooooong walk to get to NC.
*A red convert. Tootsietoy in one piece with all 4 rubber wheels still. 1940's
*A busted up Greyhound Bus with the two little plastic gem like tail lights still attached. 1940's
* A bell in wonderful shape. It's heavy. Brass?
*An unknown heavy old brass piece (in picture below the bell). Any idea what this is?
*A gold leaf, possibly from an earing?
*2 more rose tags.
*2 more buckles.
*A small (about 3") metal toy wheel.
*Clock piece.
This may be my last post for a few days. My back is killing me and I need a manicure!
Thanks for looking.
Happy hunting this w/end folks,
MM

Guess your sick of me saying how cool your finds are?

If your not then those are sweet finds as always-good assortment of relics there!

Have fun,

Salvager,
No way am I tired of hearing that. It makes my sore back all worth it.
Hopefully I ca uncover a good coin or two before I finish the 164 acres.
I wondered into a different part of the woods out there yesterday, and found a very cool rock grouping with a small waterfall. I'll be getting some pictures of it next week, and doing some detecting around the stream there. Hopefully I can hit on some CW era items around there. I figure if there was some CW activity at this farm property, the horses and men had to have water.
Thanks again,
MM

MM, in the photo with the bell,on the right side.I think that may be a bell off of a old wind up clock,the kind where there are two bells on top,or maybe a bell off of a old wind up telephone.Hard to say, just by the picture ?
Now,for your sore back,go to Southern States and get a bottle of horse liniment,fix you right up !! Can't have you sore this weekend,party hardy
