Well, I wrote up a nice new thread, was logged out and lost it all. Oh well.
I'm not going to redo all that and will just post what I have from some recent hunts (it was really interesting though).
1926 penny I sorted out of a bunch I had found over many hunts.

A bunch of stuff found over a few hunts.



A couple of broaches or pins.



A contestoga bell.




A musket ball, underwear button (?) and a thimble.
A "thing" I know I know but have forgotten (little help?)

This thing reminds me of an old bank alarm bell (it might be?). There's writing on it but not enough for me to decipher. Anyone know?

And this broken little... bottle (?) I wish it were whole but I figured I'd bring it back and post it and maybe somebody knows what it is for? It seems strange to me that one would go through the time to make this unless it's pretty old. There's no writing or numbers on it (although the picture shows a spot that looks like there is, it's not) Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

Thanks for looking. And, if anyone has any thoughts on the 1926 penny I'd like to hear them. I know condition is everything when coins are involved. Thanks again!
