Old Fort Niagra Thingy... *shrug*

[FooserPaul]

Hello all!

Another whatsit.... I was at the house where my wife mother was born... and her mother... the property date back to the early 1800's in the family...

I know 30 years ago there was so much junk on it you could not see much grass as my wife grandfather worked at a junk yard... Be buried the last washer he replaced in the side yard... but what the heck... it was after dinner there and I had about 30 miuntes of sunlight left tonight with the detector in the trunk... Dinning pants and shoes in the trunk also... you never know right :-)

It was next to a rusted large nail, but I kept ketting a pretty good half dollar signal... It was 5-6" down...

Is it a watch fob ? Any idea as to date ??

Thanks for looking...
Paul

It is a nice fob. I would date it early 1900's. Not sure exact date. The old Fort is still there and is a tourist attraction near Niagra Falls. Here is the link to their website. It looks like an awsome place to visit and seems to be well kept.
