Boy your sites are loaded with Wheats :shocked04: Nice score on the silver too :clapping: I have never seen a key with that on it. That is one cool find. It was a common saying on medals, that if injured, I am a Catholic please call a priest, but never on a key. Good find. That almost looks like a tire valve cover from some of the old farm equipment tires. :confused: Nice hunt Dave

Sweet hunt !! All kinds of different goodies thumbsup01
Your crotal bell looks like about a #2 or 3. If you look at the bottom near the split you'll see a number telling you what size bell it is. :yes:
Congrats :grin:

Great day of detecting you had today!!

Lots of nice older coins. You made a nice jump in your silver count.

Congrats. Hopefully we can get out this week together. I've been a little tied up with work lately. crying01
