Saturday Yields Whatzits, Relics, Wheats, and Indian

[cambria09]

Hello All. Hunted an 1880's home site for an interesting mix of finds.

There are (4) whatzits:
Copper ball which I think is a toilet float
Brass linkage piece which may also be toilet related
Rifle shell casing w an extremely small bore
Top to something with 08/21/1912 patent date on a "double R"

Also some more common finds like the sinker, suspender clip, gas lamp part, harmonica reed plate, (3) wheaties, and the always welcome indian head.

Thanks for viewing and HHTA. C9

the shell is a blank, looks like probably 7.62mm (M60 machine gun). someone else found one of those double R things earlier this year. can't remember for sure, but seems it was a lid from some toiletry product

Awesome job on the coins

That does look like a toilet float and the flush lever maybe, great coin finds. The thing with pat'd Aug 21,1912' does it turn. May be a door buzzer.
