Mother of all Crotal Bells

[Dirty Digger Doug]

Found this ginormis Crotal today. It's about 3 1/8" wide by 3.5" high. A little damaged but it does ding, ding, ding. Found two IHP's and a IHP that was flattened by a train.

I'm thinking it is a #15. Here it is next to a #1 Crotal I found at a different home site just down the road.

Congratulations on the mother of all bells. I found one about 5 years ago at an old school that sat on a civil war site. I thought I was digging another aluminum can. Mine is a number 15 as well. She’s a little beat up but she still rings. Stay safe and keep swingin.
