Me too. It was not that pretty when I found it. Had to soak it in vinegar for a few days.

A great mix of items... if i had a "Relics Bucket List" - crotal bell & wax stamp would be on it for sure! Any idea what the item with the two 'Star of David' cut-outs is?

I'm not 100% sure. I'm thinking some kind of brooch or a pin.

What in the world is that metal portrait? I've never seen anything like that at all? If that is a personal item and not something commercial, that might be the coolest relic I've seen(that's not a high collectable).

Only thing I can think of is maybe a printing plate. An old one. Never thought of it being someone's pocket picture or something like that
Excellent finds. Love the dog tags......

Those are some really cool relic finds you posted! The lock with the intact cover is really neat. The pencil rub of that metal plate is kind of eerie but still interesting. There's much buried history in your part of the state! I hope I can get out east to detect sometime this year when I visit my friend in Greencastle and my old hometown of Falmouth.

Those dog tags can be valuable

Really cool relics. Enjoy the research that goes into figuring out what they are or how old. They can tell better stories than coins.
Those are some nice finds. Love the old dog tags.
1916 is the oldest dog tag I've ever seen.
Used to live in Zullinger, Greencastle and later in Chambersburg in the 80's and early 90's. Worked at Letterkenny Army Depot. Always fun to go back and see how the area has changed.
Great finds.
What is fed odds?
