Finds from my last 3 hunts

Hey folks. Well I finally got around to taking some pics of my finds from my last 3 hunts. The first pic here is all of the coins and tokens...which are as follows:

3...yes 3...1844 Half Penny Tokens
1-1854 half penny token
1-"un sou" token
12 large cents...1859, 1876H, 1882H, 1891, 1903,
1912, 1916, 4-1917's, and a 1918
4-indian heads...1862, 1874, 1893, 1902
3-fishscales...1870, 1897, 1918
1-1901 dime
1-1926 Mercury dime

and last but certainly not least, 2 1907 quarters

I've included some pics of the relics I found on these hunts as well.

I found this seal or stamp where I find all of my military relics. I'm guessing it's some sort of wax seal/stamp...who knows...maybe an officers!? It's made of lead, and as you can see it's an inverted "G"...until you stamp it into some wax anyhow. Anyone ever seen one??

The last item is a mystery to me. It has an image of two women or at least their heads. I found this at an old fairground. I have no clue what it is...seems to be made of lead!? Judging by the hats these ladies are wearing, it's pretty old. It looks like it may have also been some sort of stamp!? Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks for looking!

Well after about 2 months with no computer it's good to finally get back to the forums and see my fellow explorers still doing well at the game. Man you have been really slaying them finds. HH
 
Lots of really cool stuff. What is the little scoop looking thing? I have one and have no clue what it is.

Nice finds Wess The last item with the 2 Women on it is probably from an advertisement either in the news paper or in a magazine. It is a Printers set up (like) Type. This is just my thought on it.

I normally hunt all of the above! *hah* I find a lot of coins in parks, although you have to have a lot of patience for some...many of the parks are hammered and you have to go awfully slow to pick the stuff out of the iron.

I hunt old homesteads quite often as I find you get a nice combination of relics and coins, and usually they have not been detected. Many people won't ask for permission I think.

Yes, I'm in Ontario, Canada...right across the border from NY state
