For me it was a glass cinnamon jar filled with dried out minnows. Second prize goes to about 4 sinkers on a string (I didn't melt them, they went in my tackle box).
How about you all?

I would venture to guess that they are 12 or 10 gauge shotgun slugs.

3 Master locks all hooked together with the keys.
A 1 1/8" socket. Lots of razor blades; so far none of them the hard way!
A (still) living snake, with it's lower body trapped by scrap lead tossed into a 55 gallon drum, at the scrap yard.
The reptile had also recently swallowed a mouse (or something). Too injured to survive release, I killed it.

Retired...TWICE. Now just raisin' cows and livin' on borrowed time.
I like finding those big shotgun slugs on the berm. Someone is nice enough to shoot lots of them at our range.
A broken 9/16 deep well socket....so far...
1960s: Stubby plastic milk bottle w/ nipple for an infant. I can understand that.
Timex watch that worked. OK
1970s: Appeared to be a good pair of glasses. I returned them.
Half a box of shotgun primers rudely discovered during fluxing. I got even later.
1980s: Section of false teeth. This was a warning of things to come.
Found a Trojan with what appeared to be a human tooth in it. Don't ask!
Too weird as both of these were from the same location, so I avoided further pick-up from these .... gentlemen.
1990s: A game boy. It worked.
2000s: Normal stuff so far.
Evaluate everything you read for safety and use common sense.
Razor blades, 95-5, a couple sockets. BA is w-a-a-a-a-y ahead in the condiment section—I've only gotten the Trojan wrappers. Maybe somebody thought they were wrapped in lead foil....

broken craftsmen wrenches that turned themselves into non broken wrenches the next trip to the sears store. A super ball which is still sitting on my desk. And a good size handful of ball bearings.![]()

Dang, All I've found so far is a dozen or so new valve stems plus the usual trash. I just add them to my tire fixin box.

Best find was a beat up buffalo nickle, dated about 38 or 39 I think. A dead mouse, numerous tire valve stems, lizards and black widows. Fortunately I haven't found any black widows the hard way.
A nice flashlight, assorted open end wrenches, pens, Burgers, chewing baccy (blech). A small transistor radio (worked but not very well). Hose clamps, two screwdrivers some loose change.
There is no problem too big that more time and more money can't solve.
