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.
Thanks, jcc! I did not know that.

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!
I thought the same. Thanks ToddsPoint.

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