Pile of relics, half nickle plated revolver,token, silver,marbles

[PikesPeakCharlie]

We got out for about 4 hrs and had a great day at our hidden spot ,when we arrived there was a big old red tail hawk sitting on a rock looking at us, I asked but he wouldn't stick around for a pic then we found 4 more foundation holes that we didn't know about,can not wait to explore them !! Before I even turned on the detector I spotted the butt of the pistol sticking out of the dirt looking at me with a big smile I did a little looking online and think it might be a Smith and Wesson model 2 army from the 1880s any help would be much appreciated . The brother found the token and even though he found it , I danced around with him good thing this spot is remote ! Then I found a pretty 1909 barber dime. All in all a great day and a great hunt !

I love the token congratulations to your brother!!!! I can't wait to see what else you 2 find!!! I had my brother on a few digs with me but he never got bit by the detector bug! I would probably have less of a collection. Glad you were able to get around the tall grass.

No aggies just bennies and two glass,one beautiful little swirly. One of the clock pieces is stamped with a six pointed star and New Haven Conn

Wow .. Great hunt! All kinds of nice goodies. I am not sur, but judging by the shape of the access plate hole, I think your revolver may have been an F. W. Hood spur trigger pocket pistol, circa 1874.

Nice assortment of finds congrats on all

It looks very much like my Smith & Wesson Model 1. These were built from 1857 to 1881 if my memory serves me. Great find!!!

Mine is a second issue and was made from 1860 to 1868. I think there were at least 3 variances of this weapon. (As in 1st through 3rd Issue)

Mud hut and multz ,thanks for the ideas on the pistola ,hoping to get a positive I'd and possibly a search of the serial #

 

[mlutz]

Check on the right hand side where the grip would be. The other spots there were SN's are not there. IE the barrel and the cylinder.

I didnt really notice that token before, that is an amazing token. A very historic town too. That thing is valuable!

Sweet find

 

[PikesPeakCharlie]

Mlutz, I think you misunderstood me a little , It has a serial # on the butt and just an AO under the right grip.
