Murderer's Knife, Bucket Lister

[OxShoeDrew]

Hey everyone!
Sorry to have been absent the past few months. We took some vacations around the country.
Between our trips I did get to do some detecting but there was never enough time to post before heading out again.

The bucket lister is an 1810-20 Haitian military button. They are rare in NE but oddly are found more in the north west US.

The silver butter knife belonged to a locally well known murderer (1910s) whose house was torn down and made into a park. I don't think that was the murder weapon, actually I think it was a gun.:lol:
The spoon is also silver and has a beautiful rose on its bowl.
The dog tags are 1921,22,23
Thanks!

Gee there are some interesting finds for sure! The silver knife and spoon is my favorite.

Wonderful variety of old finds, Drew! :clapping:

The silver knife and spoon are spectacular. How incredible that you found a murderer's butter knife! What a story! :shocked04:

The Haitian military button is intriguing as well! I don't recall seeing one before. Very cool!

I like how you just throw your coppers in a pile like they're unimportant. :lol: A Matron Head would be a thrilling find for us here in Illinois.

Congrats on the terrific finds and thank you for sharing them with us! :yes:

Thanks, Guys.
I also have a silver fork, Jarred...so now I need to make some dinner.

Thanks so much, George!

Geesh, I hope not WD! I'll go put it back :lol::shocked03:

I knew I had a military button in the field, Tony. I couldn't find which one for the longest time. The bird reminded me of the Austrian double neck but then I saw another example of mine on another forum. Apparently, they were made in Britain and CT but due to the king's suicide, never delivered. I guess they just sold them to people around the US, trying to unload them. Thanks!

What a great bunch of finds, love the Button. Any idea on the age of the bottle?

 

[Lodge Scent]

WOW! Yeah it would be a slow death with that knife Drew....but it is a very cool find! Nice score on the button!

Thank you Don and Jeff!
Does that bottle look like 1930s designs, Don?
