Trying to date this place!

[dobber97]

Found this fork which is stamped A.J Jordan 12 DWT ,this little , and a chunk of melted metal that somone has saw cut a chunk off of. It gave me a a solid 95 at 6" I think it might just be pure aluminum. Anyway this is the the second time I have hunted this place and still can't seem to really date the place. This is the third buckle I have found there, I posted the other two about a month and a half ago and posted it again in the pic with the lighter. Thanks feel free to comment.

The buckles look pretty old, but the lighter looks fairly new, so as usual I am confused!

How does 1900 sound? Just a guess, and if I were you, I wouldn't trust my guesses lol. Could be a bit older

Def. mid 19th century!!

I think late 19th century is right for sure, this chunk of melted metal has be intrigued. Why would anyone saw a chunk off of it surely its not silver. Its heavy like lead ,but not colored like lead. WEIRD for sure

Early 1900s. Buckle is a harness attachment. Congratulations. Thanks for sharing.

Okay, I looked up the A. J. Jordan cutlery company. As best as I can tell, they were in business from 1886-1926. That should help somewhat.

The chunk is aluminum, something had to get really hot to melt like that. Thanks ya'll for the help
