I went out hunting the other day in a wooded area that had a tavern until 1840, when it burned down. I had already searched an area across from the tavern site which had a foundation. I found an 1836 large cent, plated & gilted buttons, a watch key and various other artifacts http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,59770.msg426475.html#msg426475.
Is this an iron of some type, like a griddle iron? it is solid & heavy, tapered, wider on top, narrower on the bottom. I found it in the same hole as the chain and a broken part of something resembling a kettle. What is the best way to clean Iron relics?
