How someone lost a 10'' nail, I have no idea LOL. I also found a few "Midwest Pressure Treated" tags, no idea if they are recent, or old

The beauty of this hobby is we find some really wierd stuff sometimes!
The 10" nail looks like it might be the type to put up spouting/rain gutters......usually aluminum. If magnetic, is probably steel and older.
The lumber tag, never heard of....maybe Google it? All the pressure treated lumber I have used/seen had paper/adhesive tags. Good luck & keep swingin

I'm pretty sure the large nails are for landscape timbers.. I use them for that.
