Went to the peace dollar field for a couple of hours today, and found some interesting relics. Aside from a harmonica reed, cap, part of a heart bracelet (I found other parts here also), and some clad, I found what I think is is the tip of a pen, and a vintage Case pocket knife:
The pens base appears to be copper, while the tip is perhaps gold? Its got some weight to it too, but no markings. Both of these items were about 6 to 7" down, and the glint of the pen tip got my hopes up. I cant get the knife to open, but if anyone has some suggestions on soaking it in oil or something, I'd like to know.
Thanks for looking, and HH!
