What on earth did I find? Ancient lock? Lol

Hey everyone, as the title states, what did I find today? I was metal detecting in Maryland at Calvert Cliffs along the Chesapeake bay. Had a nice signal on the dedtextor, and this is what I found. I can tell you that it’s very heavy and just has an appearance of being potentially old. I’m no good at identifying things so I’ll leave it to people who may know.

What do you think?

Not sure what you have there. Did you find any fossils? I don't think you can go to Calvert Cliffs and not find any!

You need to find a BETTER CAMERA LOL It is hard looking at those pictures can you take some better ones ?

 

[BrettCo124]

Sure, but it’s from the newest iPhone. I think they uploaded differently because I see a little blue check mark next to mine. I’m going to upload it to my channel and post it here for you all to see. Sorry about that!

Sure did! Found a large vertebrae and a handful of sharks teeth but nothing big yet. Still have tomorrow to try!

Here is the link. It’s going to be part of a series of clips that I’ll post to my channel. So, sorry it’s long!

No clue. Could it be off a boat...outboard motor?

 

[BrettCo124]

It absolutely could be. And I sure as hell hope not. Lots of boat traffic in this area. I was hoping for an ancient lock
