Weekend Finds Chevy Bow Tie

[erfranks]

Getting hot out there, but was able to get out on Sunday for a little while. Went to an old site and as you can tell by the finds, you can find just about anything. Founds items from 3 different centuries. .64 cal rev war musket ball, parts from oil lamp, deco brass, old lighter, a 1917 chevy bow tie it has pat date of May 8,1917 on back, and 1971 quarter, and zincin lincoln you just about can not tell what it is, and couple of neat surface finds top of old cork medicine bottle and piece of old water pitcher handle. Still trying to figure out the piece on top left in the group picture.




Thanks for looking, Happy Hunting

The Chevy bowtie goes back to 1913. Gary

It's been years since I found a rad badge, the one you found looks to be in great shape.
I like the white porcelain fragment too.

I was referring to the piece you asked about. "Top left"?

Just trying to help.

It looks like some type of cap of something it is threaded inside. Thanks

Yeah, a cap of some sort. With such a wide thread....maybe a top of a fence? Or maybe a tool bit?
