Last Day at the Summer Kitchen

[T Vernon]

Went back to the summer kitchen today for a couple of hours and found my second silver a 1945 Mercury dime. I also found:
a BB, Metal button (painted), a pocket watch, a penny, a quarter (clad), a saw blade, and something else that is a mystery. I also found lots of garbage. As I picked up another piece of metal from the new metal roof on the house I got another ding...It was the silver dime at a depth of 3". It has been a fun place to hunt but now it is time to go to my grandpa's house and search some new spots. I will come back to the summer kitchen later. Thanks for keeping me going everybody! My addiction has forced me to do weird things. In fact my wife and I are looking for a house and I am looking at homes based on the md potential and age of the neighborhood!!!!

T Vernon, what is the item on the far right under the saw blade? Any markings?

Too funny about the MD potential of the house!! Glad you found another silver piece. That's make it all worth while!

Happy Hunting,
Moon

The Merc is nice...and I totally understand buying the house based on age ...and how about historical neighborhood activity ! LOL

Nice dime, Just a quick note. We were looking for a new house last year. I had found an old house built in 1880s that was 3 stories and had almost the whole block for its property. I was set on this house, but the wife wasn't. We are now living in a ranch built in the late 60s. Somehow they always get their way. Good Luck.

That piece of metal does not have any markings that I can see. I believe it is 1/2 of a concrete anchor but not 100% sure.

Going to look at a house from 1904 with .77 acres and outbuildings!!! WoooooHooooo!

The piece beneath the saw blade is a wedge that holds the barrel of a muzzleloading rifle into the stock. It goes through the stock forearm and through a slotted lug under the barrel. Could be from an old Hawken rifle or a modern reproduction. From the looks of it I vote for the old rifle theory!
