Fri & Sat finds - Seated .10, heart doohickey,...

On Fri. night after work, went back to where I'd found the Seated Quarter 2 weeks ago and, along with some wheats and one IH, pulled up this stuff. Anyone know what the heart doohickey is for? (I wondered if it was horse gear decoration.) The tiny hammer is kind of cute. I presume the two things in the middle are suspender like gear. Not sure what the valve on the right and the button/snap-like thing are for.

Then on Sat.--after my first time asking permission asking random people to search their 1800s house (and not finding much and them asking me to leave when they left)--headed out to a cellar hole where I'd found some relics and, quite some time back, my first flat button. Wondered around out into the surrounding woods and found this seated dime along with a few IHs I have yet to H202.

Towards the end, found these two large iron doohickeys back towards the cellar hole. This is the same place a friend and I found much larger iron rings that the online concensus seemed to be were wagon hub rings. Don't know what these are but wonder if they're related somehow.

Way to go, Rich! That dime is in very nice shape. Gridding that site might pop up a few more of Ms. Liberty's sisters. Congrats, and good luck in your future hunts. Johnny
 
I like it Rich....a few whats its are always fun to find and research....My only guess on the valve looking thing is for water or gas....I don't think plumbing or gas was until the late 1800's to early 1900's...but don't quote me on that....I imagine it mattered how much money you had, and back then, not many.....Nice seated....:cheers:
 
Very nice rich!!! I for the first time to asked someone to hunt their property for the first time!!! I found some goodies that im going to post tomorrow night!! Keep it up man!! Im jealous about your Seated quarter! Did you post pics of it??

Sometimes the whatsits turn into more fun than the coins...second time finds right? once with the detector and again with the identification...sure a nice seated dime though. Good luck.
