From this past weekend... The seal and weight are not really rare enough to be bucket listers but they are relics that I have been hoping to add to my collection for a while now.

Looks like the center says "BURY."

My first trade weight. I think the sword means London and there appears to be a crown over a "G," but not sure which George that would be. Can't make out the other symbol.

Parasol handle?

Some lemon juice brought out a lot of silver.

Need some help with this one. I think it could be half of a dress clasp of some kind. I could see a ribbon being sewn around the bar on the back and the other half of the clasp would have a male-piece to go into the slot. But, I can't find any examples like it, so I don't know.

Thanks for looking.

Nice!!!!! Congrats!!!!!
 

Congratulations well done,,I hope you can send a good luck signal over here,,
 

Due to the spaces of the 3 verification marks I can tell its a Geo II period pan/trade weight - 1727-60 (Yes, London)

Forgot the name of them but the silver item is 18th C & went around the neck area. I think its called a 'Stock' hasp?! (the stock clasp went into it)

Thanks for the ID's. I was really struggling with the hasp. That's another first for me from this hunt.
 

sweet finds, cleaned up really nice. thanks for posting
 

That bale seal this interesting. On the perimeter is looks like GRUMBY SONS .... In the middle I thought it was a number and then a unit, 750 RT or something like that.
