All finds from this weekend are from either of two former farm sites.
Today's wheat was from 1950, yesterday's wheat was pretty toasted and I couldn't get a date. Best guess was from the 1930s.
I also found a spent Aramid KV 350 arrow with a still-sharp broadhead.
The butter knife and spoon next to it are stainless steel. The next spoon and broken fork are plated silver, and I think the last one is sterling but I don't see any hallmarks.
Of the three buckles, two appear to be shoe buckles, and the big one I think is horse tack, possibly from a horse-drawn plow.

Did I mention I found a threshing scythe blade? :laughing7:

The item with the hooks next to the penny is the inside of an old key wallet, and I think the thing right above it is a spring loaded hinge....

I do believe you're right, about the key wallet piece. Makes sense, I wasn't sure what to think of it when I found it. The hinge I knew was a hinge because I pried it off a door frame :tongue3:
