Went to a spot in the dez where I've found some interesting things in the past.
I'm thinking this place was a dump rather than a habitation.
The three keys are fuzed together.

I think the Great Seal button is from WW1.
The wheat cent is 1921.
The shot penny (with part of the lead slug still in it!) is a 1980.
The trapezoidal piece looks to be part of a radio or something. It has graduated lines of 0, 10, 20, 30, etc. up to 100.

That's all the fun I'll be having here for awhile. Have to drive back to Reno for a bit to deal with house remodeling stuff.

Pretty cool. I wonder if the gauge is some type of speedometer.

Cool looking recoveries.
The buttons sure keep well in the arid conditions.
Never seen an earring such as that one. (Kind muttly looking)
