New spot gives up IH, WWII Navy tag, large token, etc. **UPDATE**

[ModernMiner]

I received permission to detect a new spot in an 1800's neighborhood. The finds weren't that fantastic yet, but I have a lot to cover still.
I think some one beat me to the silver.
My finds today were:

*1900 IH

*1943P war nickel , 1935 & 37 Wheats, 1976 Canadian quarter.

*An old gold gilt pin with what looks like a tiger on it.

*A Navy Receiver Switch Box - Bureau of Ships tag dated April 21, 1941.

*A large "Hammer Slammer Cap Special" token. Dated 1994. Any idea what a Hammer Slammer is?

*Lead seal. I can see "R & G ? K" on it.

*A strange looking bullet. (to me anyways )
Any idea how old it is? It has "W C C 6 7" on the bottom.

* Brass handle, plus many other tidbits.

Thanks for looking,
MM

Thanks Ron. Those gears are from clocks. It's amazing how many clocks, pocket watches, and harmonicas were broken back then.

So you missed an 1800s coin by one year - and your still complaining? You should just change your name to "Modern Whiner"...

You definitely dug some neat stuff today brother. That equipment tag is fantastic - already told you about that one. The "lioness" thing is interesting as well as that "Russwin(?)" piece - I'd like to see if anyone can i.d. that one. You know the goods will keep coming for you Doug - they always do...

That's an awesome haul there MM! Looks like another great start to another great year! A Hammer Slammer is used for...POGS! Anyone remember those things? When you stacked them up, you used a metal "Slammer" to try and flip the stack. Was great fun back in the 90's
