    The lead weight in the pointed stick is from a javelin, the riveted copper plates are from a scabbard or horse tack, the glass cylinder is a lite bulb lens or shield and the little metal cylinder is a tip for a cane, magicians wand, or wooden curtain rod. Just guessing.

    That copper Camel ad sheet looks like it could have been a printing plate to print on a single page, intended to fold over, maybe for a booklet or flyer.

      If it was used for printing wouldn't it be backwards?

      Fair question, not really sure but I seem to recall there being both a "positive" (ink on the devices) and "negative" (ink on the fields, so that lettering was formed by absence of ink). But I'm definitely not sure either way, just couldn't imagine any other scenario where half tge design is upside down! 🤷‍♂️

    the segmented glass thing reminds me of a lighthouse lense. ill bet its a boat light lense.
    and that brass thing really does look like the bottom of a machette scabbard.

      Probably illegal. Most rivers and streams in the US are regulated by the Army corp of engineers and you are not allowed to metal detect, treasure hunt or even remove anything.

    I think that "axle bearing" is more likely to be a propeller shaft bearing from an old outboard motor.
    I had a 1954 Evinrude l had to find a prop bearing replacement for.
    It looked very very similar.

    I think that weird glass globe was an old porch light glass fixture. Most likely from 1940' to 50'. The curved copper piece looks like it could be the bottom end of a large knife scabbard.

    2:54 the half pewter ball reminds me of a Christmas tree ornament is that a possibility? Did they make ornaments out of pewter back in the late 1800’s?? Hmmm back to the vid…. 9:09 yes I think that’s the trigger guard area of an old 1860’s pistol holster maybe a major or captains? Back to the vid… 9:52 well that looks like the top to an antique paramount lighting company Christmas tree light box… ya hard to believe but I think so… the cardboard ones had the same hole types on each side back to the vid….the rest I have no idea😂😂😂 definitely an odd bunch of finds (ya I have some of those camel tins from the 90’s it’s upside down because it was folded there and that’s the back side of the box) thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼 ps hope you see this comment

    Hey chigg Patrick from Spotsylvania Virginia here. I have been working on killing several large, 30 foot trees of heaven. They are all gone by the end of winter.All the saplings will be gone and we will just kill anything that comes above ground next year. Hopefully, we keep that spotted lantern away from my garden ❤ happy hunting we need to dig again real soon
