Nice hunt dude. Well done. Interesting patina on that nail. Looks like a Tombak nail... not that they ever existed. Big fan of the spoon too, haven't found one like that yet. Comment of the year, "definitely ridden hard and put away wet!" lol . I could see it was def an Un sou with that wreath too. The "Conestoga bell" is def my fav too followed close by the ornate buckle. 2 piece actually. Found one similar called a wreath buckle. Search that and it should give ya an idea.

So glad you liked the video. Thanks for the tip on the wreath buckle, you may have solved the mystery! Can't wait to see what else comes from that property on my next visit.

[@CuriosityDetecting]

Thanks Liz! It's always great to check something off the old bucket list!

[@RelicXPeditions]

Great episode with some great finds

[@CuriosityDetecting]

Thanks! I just love how you never know what going to come out of the dirt!

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

What amazing finds! The bell is a gorgeous find!❤

[@CuriosityDetecting]

@@cynthiaswearingen1037 Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I've always wanted to find a bell of that type. I've found sleigh bells and crotal bells before but never one like that!

[@masonmercmetaldetecting]

Another great video Phil! I love all the history that comes with your coin finds! Love your excitement with the bell, we love finding them too! Keep up the great work!

[@CuriosityDetecting]

Thanks so much! I just love finding buckets listers that I've never dug before :)

[@detectincoppers]

Great video as always! The conestoga bells were also used on animals, like the crotal bells, i believe

[@CuriosityDetecting]

Perhaps I have discovered a new breed of Conestoga Bell - the MICROSTOGA!

[@DIUBrandon]

Another awesome video!

[@CuriosityDetecting]

@@DIUBrandon Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

Really great finds, loaded with history. I don’t know the bell item its background, but it’s nice. The nail looks like solid steel maybe used for floorboards and could be late 1800’s. the token is very nice too. I really enjoy your video. Thank you for showing me your finds.😊BRUN

@@brunfree Thanks Brun, that's an interesting tip on the square nail! Glad you enjoyed the video.
