Relics and Vintage Masonic/Shriner Pin

[cambria09]

Hello All. Got out after work to my new site, a small town previously un-dug set of 19-teens home sites. Lots of trash to sift through. I found a garbage pit with some large iron objects not pictured. Got too dark to dig it out.

Recovered a strange mix of stuff including 50 or so clad coins, misc hardware, common brass buckle, some kind of music box wheel, 1953 Florida license plate, vintage fishing reel, one wheatie, and the find of the day: a brass Masonic or Shriner pin. Can't find this pin on the internet but it has some nice relief on it. Anybody ever seen one of these?

Thanks for the view and may the finds be with you. C9

Great finds! I'm thinking you could get a tune out of that wheel with a good soak in WD 40. At least to tell what it is.

The little green lobster is a cracker jacks prize, I think. Love those.

From what I see on the web, these Shriners are out of Springfield, Mass. I guess one of them retired to Florida... imagine that, huh?

Nice finds. Congrats. GL&HH.
