Metal thingy--Solved-- Spring cultivator tooth

[Tecumseh]

This was ringing in the .50 range on my Ace 250. Any ideas?

That is farm equipment sir. A plow blade of sorts.

Close 4-H, It's a tooth off of a spring cultivaor.

Looks like a large piece of iron, original use unknown to me I have the Ace 250 and sometimes it will ring well into the silver if the object is large enough. That is part of the fun, you never know what you have until you recover it.

That's cool. What time frame?

Tecumsah, hard to say as the design has not changed much. Probably this century though, as most cultivators were spike cultivators before the 1900's.

Good enough for me! Thanks!

Heh, I've found one of those too... back up in Missouri. I had no idea what it was at first either.
