Relics

[Mayo South Elgin]

I haven't posted much lately because, well, mem cents aren't all that exciting.
Here's a few relics I got in between the lincolns in some local sidewalk and parkway work while getting rained out with Lowbatts.

The ornate round pin is missing the actual straight pin part but the clasp is still on back.
It's stamped sterling. The cane handle appears to have been gold plated though little remains of the gold. The other ornate piece of metal - I have no idea what it was but maybe something off a box or ?
The back of it is stamped 1884. The button has a complete back with a loop but there's no writing or makers mark. I almost think something else hung from the front of it because of the opening below the leaf.

Those relics are interesting... leaves a lot up to the imagination.

Hope they leave us something more before week's end. Been a paltry silver showing from that site for sure even though we've got a good list of other goodies so far. My clad count is sickeningly large from there.
