That Shilling would be a good UK find. These were rarely lost in this period. Great Day! :icon_thumright:

The one gold colored regligious medal is a 'Miraculous Medal'. My grandmother used to get them through church. Not so certain it is from 1830's though. I don't have the research to back it up.

Nice finds through and through. Canada is a stop for me this summer. There are a few camps waiting for me and my 78 year old guide. Think I should do pretty well for a few days of searching. Maybe I'll come up as good as you seem to be, but I doubt it. Your postings have been pretty impressive.
