Some interesting old finds today including gold!

[cudamark]

Just $1.18 in change, a homemade knife, letter opener, shiv? A house key, a button, a suspender buckle, a shell casing, a modern generic token, a brass pin with a knot design on the end, maybe a water valve stem? a Manhattan Brass oil lamp burner from 1883, a M.W. and Co. padlock cover from the 1800's, and a gold pocket watch frame that passes a 14K acid test and fails the 18K test. Old area, but strange that I didn't find any old coins, not even a wheatie.

Nice going on the gold case frame. Congrats

Cool getting the complete hat pin, usually the pin is rusted off.
It looks like a letter opener for the home made knife.
