I haven't really lost anything important other than a watch I used to hang from the TA lever on an 806, but I've found some strange things.
Moldboard plowed up a IH 2pt. hitch coupling beam 3 or 4 years back. Patch has been in the family since the late 40's, nobody remembers having a piece of machinery that used this piece, and nobody remembers losing the piece. Must have fell from the sky, or worked it's way through from China.
I v-ripped up what was left of a shotgun. Old sucker, and had been underground a long time, too. When chiseling, I found a 10 ft. piece of railroad rail once, too, but I was about 100 ft. away from a then Conrail line. Even found a manhole cover, in the middle of 80 acres. Maybe it was someone's weight for an old disc harrow or something. Got about a 150 ft. long piece of heavy steel cable that was buried for some reason along a fencrow once, too. There were no utilities or buildings for over a mile.
My first spring on the tractor, and a bunch of bones rolled over in the furrow behind me in the corner of a field. I was about 12 years old, and a little creeped out. I dug around a bit, found 2 collars. Turns out the neighbor buried his 2 dogs in the corner of the field the fall before after they died about a week apart.
