Got some pretty cool finds today and yesterday.

1. An old button. Origin Unknown.

2. Solid brass Buckle. Handcrafted?

3. Strange object. On the knob it says Benedict & Burningham. ???

4. Old boy scout metal.

5. A token from the 1988 Tennessee Cotton Fair, found in Austin Texas.

Your mystery things looks like the wick key & housing off an oil lamp, nice stuff!

I think the Boy Scout item is a neckerchief broach. I have found 3 so far. Does it have the 2 folding tabs in back?

Yes, that's exactly what that is. Lots of folks find them. I have found 1, but I still have mine in a drawer from when I was a wee lad in Cub Scouts.
