French Revolution whatsits????

[skispeed69]

These are from the past weekend. Hopeing someone can identify what they are.

1. The big ugly looking thing is made of lead and looks like it broke off of something. I want to say this is a flag staff top... Or maybe a tent pole of some type. The lack of modern stuff, besides the Nazi 10 Riechfenning, I would say this came from the encampment.

2. Another lead item I found... Its all twisted up but it had three arrows on it (one is missing) and looked like it hung from something. Don't want to open it up and break it.... OK that is all for now, still looking for Hitler’s gold, LOL.

3. The big number 5.... It attached to something I really would like to know what. Has a lip on one end and a place that a screw attached?? Any Ideas.

The bottom one looks like a brass house number.

The numeral 5 looks like old lead linotype but can't tell how big it is. Monty

Well... the "5" is not backwards, to it's meant to be seen as is. Line the numbers up and bolt them to a mailbox!

The top one kind of looks like an old lamp post finial one might have found on the old gas street lamps, just a thought. I have no idea about the others.

The rounded piece with the cross-hatching looks like a thimble. But you probably knew that already.

Right you are on the 5 not being reversed. I shoulda' seen that. I will blame it on a senior moment. That's better than a kings ex! M nty
