Penny gear, token, printing plate, keys and various finds…

[Underwonder]

Here are some finds from the other day now organized and cleaned up. I found the gear made from a penny, the token, and the printing plates the most interesting.

The key you didn't label to the right of the others is likely a Yale & Towne solid barrel key.

Hi again jcc..I brass wire brushed a bit more where any print might be but could not find any markings. Are some Y & T keys unmarked?

That's pretty ironic that a Jewish merchant has a token with a swastika on the back. Obviously made before the 20's. Neat find!

All those finds are great. You have a good site or sites to detect. Love the token.

 

[Lenrac2]

Great finds! I love how ornate simple hardware like the drawer pull was back then! Love that IHP too!!

 

[Tpmetal]

looks like a great spot with plenty of potential. love the one cent gear!

What a great spot it appears. The copper gear is an incredibly special find in my opinion.

I'd be willing to bet the penny made into a 'gear' is more likely a home made replacement for a lost spur rowel

I thought the same. Thanks ToddsPoint.

Quite possible. There is a large carriage house and there were several horses on the property! I really want to find a crotal bell! …but the hunt is fun and other treasures reveal themselves.
