I've mostly been hunting on the beaches and parks finding coins and such, but this past weekend and again today I found some neat relics in a local park/wooded area near me. After doing some research to find out they were a lot older than I thought, I figured I would share.
Saturday I found 3 old Shotgun shell heads.
I think I the first one is a Winchester from between 1901-1919
The second is another Winchester, this looks like a 16 gauge from 1932-1944
The third is a Remington from 1915-1945.
Correct me if i'm wrong on any of those.
Then today I found this little medallion that I believe is from a wood saw. I can barely make out the T.D and 27 below the G.H. Bishop & CO
Looks like this is identical to this one I found here Greyhound Backsaw No. 8 - 10 inch, Steel Back, Closed Handle by Daryl Weir
So I think this was made between 1882-1899? If so that makes this my first 19th century find!
Any more info would be appreciated.
