    A bell @ a few other brass fragments

    The weather here was 65 and a beautiful day. So I decided to go out to the farm. Not many targets (other than screw caps and shell casings),but I did manage these pieces.

    Thanks Dan. The brass pieces look very ornamental to me as well. Any idea with it age?
