Hi Dave and thanks. yes silver is great to pull out of the ground I personally like spoons the best too.
The piece in question is eeerrrr well I havent quite figured that out that yet. But I can tell you this much about it. Itth is a patented piece made by Holmes Mfg Co Prov RI Dec 11 88
It may be off of some type of houseware item. Both pieces came out of the same hole..

I think they are parts to a suspender clamp. Just guessing

Thanks very much for the information. Don't you wish that everything we found came out of the ground with the manufacturers name and a patent date on it!

I think walhooey might've just given you the answer to what this is!

Thats a pretty good guess.. I recall seeing some old thin suspenders with a similar clamp.
Thanks
