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:) IMG_20191120_070457822~2.jpgIMG_20191119_131355798.jpgIMG_20191120_064302433~2.jpgIMG_20191120_064337508~2.jpgIMG_20191120_070627845.jpgIMG_20191120_064920692~2.jpgIMG_20191120_064430007~2.jpgIMG_20191120_070726336.jpgIMG_20191120_070748989.jpgIMG_20191120_070700416.jpgIMG_20191120_073801251.jpgScreenshot_20191120-071850~2.png

Thank you for the replies! Thanks Steve, now that lock makes sense! Hopefully the sun will thaw out some ground so I can get out again!!!
 

That's what im talking about. That's a great day.Congratulations :icon_thumright:
 

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.
 

Thanks Charlie!! Happy Thanksgiving to you! Thanks for the information, hopefully we have some warm spells to melt the ground!
