Victorian Pencil sharpener, GWs looking Glass, and Martha's sash buckle. Lol

Had a relic kind of day with Cjon. He got all the coins..
The sharpener It is the 3rd one I have found since I started detecting.
I always thought they were gas shut of keys. Lol
Tonight I was sitting at dinner looking through Facebook, im friends with the XP UK site, and someone posted one today on there.. I said no way It has the same markings.
For some reason I really like the sharpener, maybe because my wife is a teacher? Lol
Anyway any Insight on the other 2 items would be great..
Thanks for looking George

Congrats on your third sharpener, Hard to believe just relics from you George, I guess maybe you are human... At least you got out and put some hours in. I had to rest today. Somehow I must have pulled something around my right clavicle during yesterdays hunt.

I love interesting relics--so I'd take those over coins. You did well

Sounds like a great day out with cjon. That Victorian pencil sharpener is pretty neat, haven't seen one before.

 

[Patriot Relics]

Certainly don't make em like they used to

Isn't the thing with the glass a peep sight for a door? I have no idea on the other.

Cool relics, the pencil sharpener is a cool find. I think OD has it on the door peep sight.

Nice stuff Vino. Could the glass ended tube be half of a pair of opera glasses?

The pencil sharpener is sweet.

I like that pencil sharpener George. Seems like something would find around an old one room school house. I don't believe I've ever found one.

 

[Scrappy]

What an interesting sharpener. Did you try it out? That would look cool displayed on a certain persons desk I bet

I found that same exact sharpener last year in a street tear out, except the very top is broken off mine. Took me a minute to figure out what it was too! Lol. Nice finds!

 

[Diggin Dude]

I don't always check TNET every day, but when I do, your posted finds always impress me. Way to go!!! Enjoy and HH

George - you need to hurry up and get on the Pope's calendar so you can take him relic hunting during his visit to Philly this coming weekend. Anything he digs would certainly make banner .
