Most of the relics have been through an electrolysis bath. Some have been donated to local museums. One of the relics is a bit difficult to see the writing on but it says ACL which is Atlantic Coastline Railroad and on the other side it says "Oviedo, FL" which is where I live. It's a lead luggage car seal tag. The other relics should be pretty self explanatory. I love the cobbler hammer though, dated to late 1800's early 1900's.
Nice to find artifacts that can be directly associated with items or events of local historical significance.I do like that hammer !

I like the hammer too, and it cleaned up very nicely with electrolysis.
