Shell casing and dime

blacksnaster and I  went to a World War 1 camp today. I found a few interesting items. Main things a 1942 D mercury dime, a what appears to be a shrapnel shell casing minus the detonator head, and a horse shoe with nails. 3 inch O.D. and 8 3/8 inches long.



Not sure blacksnaster if he confirmed it. But if I remember how it looks I think he found a 1936 Chevrolet radiator cap also some wheat cents. Could not make out the dates there.  

Also found a geocache. I did not have a pen but went ahead and dropped a token I found earlier in the day for grins and set it back in place.

It will be a little bit before I get to dump it in the electrolysis tank. Moving soon and already got that packed up in storage.
The measurements were up top in the first post. 3 inch O.D. and 8 3/8 inches long. If anybody has a better ID on it I'd appreciate it. The horse shoe I've been thinking about. It may be a mule shoe? Are the rounder then a normal horse shoe? It toes in pretty good toward the back.

Thanks Homie.
Now all I have to do is find the other parts. Actually don't think I would want to. the other parts could be loaded.
