Metal Detecting
UPDATE BELOW::::

I'm still metal detecting but I wanted to put this out there. I have something that appears to look like a book and a bell with an elephant on top and something else that was in the same hole. Not sure what they are yet. Having a great day no humidity!!! IMG_0002.webpIMG_0002.webpIMG_0002.webpIMG_0002.webpIMG_0002.webpIMG_0964.webp

relics they are and pretty darn cool ones at that. that's the kind of stuff that gets the imagination going.
 

The cage thing may have been part of an old string/twine holder/dispenser.
 

Love the bell, congrats on nice finds.

Bell.......Book.......and candle? :dontknow: :tongue3:
 

That bell looks like it was made in India. I can't tell, is the book hollow? Either way its cool.
 

OH HEIL WHAT A BELL AND OTHER RELICS..
 

DON'T STOP NOW!:headbang: Way cool old bell. Not sure what the book looking thing is? The basket looking thing is interesting too. You are a RELIC machine!:hello2:
 

Update:: I also found 2 buffalos (1936,?) 1945 P War Nickel, 45 Wheat and a 1975 Canadian Quarter from change at Wendy's. The bell is a 1940's India/Asia Elephant claw with Elephant topper. IMG_0982.webp

I think this is a metal book box also from the 40's. IMG_0983.webp

Finds like that do make your mind wander through days gone past.
The bell cleaned up really nice.
