Relics! Buttons, lock, lead seal!

[diggingthe1]

I had fun yesterday, just going over old spots. The marvel piece was from a few days ago. I think the Marvel piece is from a stove or sewing machine. I don't know anything about bullets, but I sure find a lot. Is there any danger in old bullets? The soldier has some type of long coat in the back. My wife likes the cut glass piece Does anyone know what type of lock this is? The button looks like a General Service button around 1890 maybe. The silver art deco button might be Canadian. I found a picture of the silver state cigar store in Denver. People rolled 200 cigars a day for 15 to 20 dollars a week. Good money then. A very interesting link about Colorado Cigar industry. https://coloradoencyclopedia.org/image/corner-arapahoe-and-fifteenth-street-1890s
I hope you all have nice weather to keep on hunting!! Cold here, snow later today but I might get out

The lock looks like it was on a trunk or suitcase. Nice bunch of finds

Good to see you are still getting some goodies !!! Congrats . I have quite few intact bullets and have had no problems. The marvel piece is from the roller/ringer part of a washing machine.
