Metal Detecting
Yesterday went to the high school. There were some very old trees I have been want to search by. I think I am not the only detectorist that had that same idea, as I found very few coins. (Mostly zinc pennies). I did find a couple interesting relics. First a piece of brass with graduating numbers on it from 60 to 260. I think it may have been a thermometer, but not sure. Maybe someone here can identify.

I also found an old harmonica reed.

I BELEIVE YOU HAVE A WEIGHT SCALE OR THERMOMETER AND A NICE OLD HARMONICA REED AND SNAP ON KEY CHAIN MEDALLION . THEY ARE COOL FINDS.
 
Nice relics! Congrats!
 
Glad you got out & found Something.

Would you happen to know how to get a "Circa" Date on Harmonica Reed's ?
If not --Cool.
That's also a Neat looking old Scale? piece.
 
Never thought of a weight scale, but you may be right. The only mark on the back of it is a small #8. I don't know anything about dating harmonica reeds, but maybe someone here does. Thanks.
 
That Snap On medallion is really nice. Good find.
