Real nice finds there , Jim, keep them coming(video's and finds), Congrats, U will find a coin in there sometime, I am sure of it, kept plugging way at it HH !
@Steelgreyeyes Very thick for a clock hand, but that would my guess too. The one I'm interested in is the round-ish one with a symbol carved in it, copper, crudely shaped (not machine stamped for sure), has square hole where square nail used to punch top hole...does it resemble any mason symbol?
@roadkillscjim Could not recognize anything from what was visible .... do you have a picture after item was cleaned? Be happy to check it out! PS ....... still have those star bit screwdrivers ... for hard drives.
@planejet42 The simple answer is 'Cause metal detectors don't find glass, ivory or plastic. People always lose buttons, but we don't find many recent ones cause they not metal. Along about 1870's glass and whale bone buttons mostly take over the market, later plastic....so it only seems like people lost more buttons way back when. Zippers on coats changed things too...
always enjoy watching Adventures With Jim... congrats on some cool items, there almost certainly has to be some nice old coins there among the buckles and buttons that you are digging... Skeeters versus old ladies nagging about cigarette smoke... pick your poison... lmao... stay with it Jimbo, and go get that coil ready.... HH
hey jim , good vid as usual. good finds. my dad was a mason and as i understand they did some really strange things in secret. no telling what those artifacts represented. cool stuff.

Nice work, man! As a Mason I can tell you nothing I saw that was anything other than commercial. Item @ 6:12 looks like a clock hand.
