Again this Sunday I had only a couple hours so I decided to hit a nearby cellar hole area I had worked a few times earlier this year, I think the area included a business that made bells and ringers for early telephones because of the amount of them I dug in the location. Earlier there this year I found a few neat items such as a KG II half penny, KG II farthing, a one reale, a few toasted coppers, an early silver ring, a silver broach, a merc and a variety of buttons including a Naval flat.
This time I found a few misc items such as a thimble, a pewter flat button, a Pontiac car token (toasted), a 1917 Merc, a small bell which I think is silver washed copper or Tombac.
Also found an item I need help with - made of hollow, formed sheet brass embossed with florals. At first I thought I had an eagle head but it's not. Looks like it could be a part, like a foot, of a larger fabrication. Any ideas?
Thanks for sharing - Bruce

Finding old stuff like that is fun and even more challenging when you find something and can't figure out what it is. HH.
