ID's Please...'sorry pic heavy'

Just some unknown iron relics I've been saving for a while. Just wondering are they worthy of the electrolysis tank or just scrap metal.

Treasure is in the eye of the beholder. What one man might see as junk another will see as gold. Clean it for kick and grins, never know might make a great display out of some of the items.

You have a cast iron frying pan handle, the end of a garden hoe, an old chain, and maybe a wrench. I cannot ID the rest. Also, the item that's belt buckle sized may clean up nice, it looks interesting to me.

I seen a couple of dirty ole hoes mixed in there!

You got about enough iron to build a tractor there!

Hey that's just a Small portion of it . LOL----'Dirty Hoes'

Actually it's the same Hoe, one just has the collar off.

Just wanted an age range for that mostly, (I,m thinking 1940-60's )..

I disagree on the horse bit, don't know what it is, but I don't think it goes in the horses mouth. Research "snaffle bit." Agree, the chain is for rafting logs in a river or log pond.

Yeah I found the Buckle piece interesting , I soaked it in Apple Cider Vinegar for a Couple weeks, hence the half cleaned look, it came from an area with CW to Red Bull items in the ground.

Yeah the Horse bit deal is a bit Larger than others I have found over the years.
It came from near a torn down barn near another large Brace looking piece with a Brass 'Pulley' wheel inside.

I wish I had grown up around a Farm & had more Equestrian Knowledge.
It's good to learn something everyday.
Thanks

Sure looks like half of a watering bit to me.
