1841 Large Cent and Musket Parts

[Metdet49]

Still hunting around the early 1800's homestead near my house and came across a few more goodies. Found some horse tack buckles, another belt buckle, some flat buttons (one with a little gilt still on it) a Coronet large cent with the date worn off , an 1841 large cent, and a 1 1/4" decorative button or medallion ?? (shown front and back). I also found a well worn 1824 large cent and an 1879 IH penny that I gave to the property owner in a shadow box along with some other interesting items I had found. There's a whole other field that will be hayed shortly, so that will open up a whole new search area.

Also pictured are the fore end, trigger guard and side plate of an early musket. I posted these on the What Is It site and the jury is still out as to exactly what gun they are from. A close match seems to be a Model 1816 Springfield.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks BuckleBoy, These gun parts are a first for me. I really like finding these old buckles too. I have actually found 3 of these recently, two with tines at this site and one without the tine at another site about 1/2 mile away. Do you know what date range we're talking about for this style of buckle?

Thanks again.
