Made it back to the site where I found the counterfeit Peace Dollars last week. No more counterfeit “coins” to be found, but a few more interesting relics popped out. Pic of the site shows where the home must have been facing the old dirt road cut and a few daffodils still blooming. The tiny gold piece is actually the front half of a mini locket with a floral image inscribed on the cover. The sterling piece could be a cane adornment, it is very thin. Any ideas on the “Hand Wrought” item? Thx!

You managed to amass a real nice assortment of relics this past outing. Congrats
Liking the dog tag, buckle. The loamy forest soils treated them kindly.
The hammered round disk with the stone, what's written on the inner circle?

Thx! It has the copy “Hand Wrought” with a fancy “H” makers mark.

That is a great variety of relics. Well done!
 

Those are some really awesome finds They may or may not be anything really valuable but they are the history of the people that lived there and left behind all of the little clues about how they lived their daily lives Cool stuff!!
