Fantastic relics! <: These are always the one of the best things about digging yards.
I think the 1833-1933 is a token from the Chicago Worlds Fair in 1933/4. 'A Century of Progess' was the motto.
Congrats Donna and thanks for posting these finds.

Those are some great relics! I love the old watch fob, the World's Fair coin, and the civil war token!

Those are some dream yards you're hunting there! :wow:

:perfect10: Nice finds again! The Watch fob is really nice, such detail. Are the Nazi Coins worth much? I know thatother Nazi items are worth alot like helmets and other large items. I never looked up the coins though. My sister has coins my Uncle brought back from several countries during the war but I don't remember any having the symbol on them. Isn't strange how the symbol used to be a symbol of good luck until the Nazi's corrupted it into something bad?
Anyway enjoyed all your finds!! :)

Is this the one your talking about? Any clue to what it is? I think it might be the handle to a fireplace poker or something. It looks like a ball with an eagle claw.

I am leaning towards a parasal or umbrella handle

That ball and claw thing is a handel to a dagger. Had one as a kid. They were sold all over the us in the late 60s to mid 70s. They even made that dagger design in red rubber for toys.
