Hey everyone - I'm putting my time in on a 1850 permission. I've found a couple of 'dumps' and keep finding lead toys in on of these areas - these two are in the best shape so far. The mounted horseman has some original paint left!

No idea on the last item - perhaps is someone sort of makeup case?

The spoon is in pretty rough shape (was only 3" down - if that).

Thanks for looking/commenting!

I found this lead toy a week or so ago, and is very similar to yours.
Very good finds! :icon_thumright:

Thanks Tommy! I'm hoping to get a 90 min hunt in before the sun goes down - my goal is to find something 'postable' :-)
