Some of the things I’ve been collecting from previous searches. Haven’t positively identified any of these yet
1. Brass or copper. Has two holes through the sides across from each other. Looks like something related to a watch.
2. Light, could be pewter? Not sure what it is. Almost looks like a can opener but the point isn’t sharp. I’ve only seen something similar on here, not exact, and it was thought it could be a seal or latch for an old canning jar, before threaded lids.
3. Appears to be an old iron snap/clasp. Found near an old flat button. May just be ordinary but not like the modern ones
4. Old copper ring. You can see a welded point in the bottom right. Not sure what it is or the purpose. Have read about old button rings that had fabric in the middle. Not sure
5. An old copper or brass buckle. D shaped, could be farm harness use, but appears small maybe more for clothing like a belt? Appears to have had a small prob but has since broken off.
6. I’m pretty sure harness or tack purpose but can’t find one like it. Maybe bronze or copper. I’ve seen similar buckles called hook hip drop buckles but nothing exactly like this one.
Sometimes I enjoy trying to identifying the relics as much as finding a coin.
Welcome any thoughts or ideas.
Thanks.
