Today's Finds, old homesite...buffalo, wheat, neat looking whatzit..lots of pics

I went back to this old homesite that I had hunted before and posted pics of before...didn't do good last time, just one jefferson nickel from the 70's but today was a different story...Got started around noon, temp was around 35 and it snowed on me all day but I found this 1935 buffalo nickel and a no date wheatie...also found this neat looking old compact complete with applicator and mushy old old makeup. Also got this ornate looking whatzit, found it in two separate pieces a few feet apart and after I cleaned them up I noticed that they fit together, but I have no ideat what it is, on the back side it has "teeth" for some reason. Oh and what looks like a button off of some jeans that says IPANA. Almost forgot to mention the biggest friggin pulltab that I have ever seen....lol...hopefully this won't be the last time that I get to hunt this year because of the weather...keeping my fingers crossed for next weekend!

Nice finds. Try and dig up some history on the property. It may give you a better idea at what you'll find...HH

Those two parts that fit together look like a butterfly broach to me, perhaps a large stone of some kind in the middle? Anyway, nice finds and you are going back aren't you? Monty

Nice finds and great spot Nevrdun...Trk5capt nailed the ID's. The buckle was originally hinged and a cloth belt ran through the slot and behind the toothed portion creating pressure on the teeth to grab the belt. If the Impana piece is threaded, it's definitely a cap. I found one this year that's octagonal and says Proctor and Gamble on it. The small doored barn is probably a buggy shed. Great potential for relics. Good luck on future hunts there.~CO2 ;D

congrats on the finds. Nickel is in very good shape for out of the ground. shed with small doors could be chicken coop. great place for a Cache.

BTW, That super-pulltab looks like one that used to come on cans of Vienna Sausages "many" years ago!

FWIW:? The clasp looks Art Nouveau to me.

Tomorrow the Bounty HUnter is coming.? I can't WAIT to hit the earth.

Too bad there isn't any in Manhattan.

HELLO Central Park! I'd check around the old Zoo and the Carousel. Or hop on over to Brklyn and Brighton Beach!
