The weather has been picture perfect fall. I love getting out. I don't find a lot of full bullets. This one looks like someone tried to take it apart. The spoon is from the Antlers Cafe that only opened for a year here in Victor in 1915. I will donate it to the local museum. Must have been bad food. Does anyone know what the folded piece with chain is? The Indian is 1898 a popular date for me. 1005170945-1.jpgThanks for looking, have a great day!!!!

Chatelaine! is the folded piece.

Victorian women wore a "belt" around their waist, with an assortment of needed items hanging from it.

Check Goggle images, there are several very similar to yours.

DCMatt and NHBENZ aint got nothing on me! You gotta be fast to play this game.

Nice finds sir.

Thanks for the ID Tom, I guess they hooked over the belt and hung things on them. A new one for me, I am always learning! I forgot to post my miners pick. I love finding these! 1002171449-1.jpg
