got in a two hour hunt and found couple more relics.
Found 2 nice shoe buckles. Big one about size of half dollar.
One was silver plated and about size of quarter. Also a belt
plate looks pretty old. And a half penny or farthing. And a button.

Belt plate - back & front

This LC looks like a 1720's(ish) half-penny or farthing
but it's patina city. Still soaking. I can see the bust but
camera shot not that good.

Silver buckle - detail.

Awesome stuff! I'd sure like to see a picture of all the stuff you've ever found, Ocean7. Although it may be more like 20 or 25 pictures! :) Good job! I wish I could've gotten out this week to go MD'ing, but I've got finals all week. This is how I've looked every day in class: ??? :-\ :o I guess that's what happens when you're supposed to be thinking about the subject at hand, and all you can think about is MD'ing. :D Should get to go next week...

Nice going O7. That belt plate looks interesting. Any chance of cleaning it up any. We have 5 inches of snow on the ground in northern Vermont, so I thought I would not be doing any more metal detecting this year. Just got a call from my neighbor who's wife was planting her bulbs in flower pots for next spring. Turns out she lost her ring in one of about 50 pots. I will be over there in the AM metal detecting in their garage in flower pots. How is that for hard up hunting....Lance

I sure would like to get out and find some nice stuff like you have, but it's Deer Hunting season around here, and we have had two people shot. Just yesterday a man got killed while hunting about 3 miles from where I live. Maybe on Sunday when they can't hunt.
