Crosscut Saw and an Oxen shoe (?)

[MisterHelix]

I got out first thing this morning to check a spot where I found the iron roller buckle.

My Nokta started chirping and I looked down and saw this!

And carefully uncovered the rest.

I also found a “horseshoe” nail, which is probably an ox shoe nail, because I found an Oxen Shoe not far away a few minutes later.

I also found my first wild coin. It’s a clad dime, but it’s my first non-driveway coin, so I’m stoked.

Oh! Another Ox Shoe!

Edit: apparently these are broken horseshoes, not Ox shoes.

Love the saw blade! What kind of bag is that? I am looking for a new one that is sturdier than the last couple I have had.

The saw blade made my day!
That bag is made by Maxpedition.
I forget which model it is.

Yeah it's a great feeling finding money out in woods or a field

Sorry, those aren't ox shoes. They are broke horseshoes. You're not the first to make that mistake. You gotta find yourself a complete saw, they look great hanging on an outside wall.

Here is what a oxen shoe looks like on the left. Broken horse shoe on the right.

Thanks, that’s helpful. Broken horseshoes could be what I’m looking at here. I would love to know more.
