That's a LOT of shotshell heads! How long did it take you find those? Can I ask you what different headstamps did you find? Shotshell heads are my favorite thing to find!

Congrats on a great hunt!

#1 might be a copper toe cap from a boy's shoe.

#2 is a cupboard latch.

Yep, Heel or toe plate, later called a tap, and a latch. Tony

No, the copper toe cap goes on the upper. You can see the shoe peg marks too.

You're right. The toe cap goes between the welt and the upper. The taps were on the soles. Tony
