Hard Times at the Ol' Cellar Hole

Worked the iron infested area with the T2se with the 4" coil and the ATPro the the small coil. Trying to here the good signals from all the iron grunting. Managed to get some cool finds. The 1841 Hard Times Token looks like its going to clean up well. The other copper not so much. You can just make out some writing and a eagle with arrows. Any idea?? The button with the stars has got me guessing also. I've never found one like it before wonder if it civilian or some organization. The other finds busted bell, trigger guard? Couple other flat buttons. Thanks for looking.

I like the hard times token. Can't really see enough detail on the other copper to venture a guess as to ID. Nice hunt. The site pics are great.

broken off the musket ,,Brown Bess tiggerguard ,, is awesome and seldom found in pieces , after all ,

What I thought was a token in now believe is a remnant to a saw. I posted the photo. I still need help IDing the button

I would say you had a pretty good hunt. Love the token with the ship.

The Hard Times a Token cleaned up well. I'm going to leave it soaking for a while. Theirs a few different variations of this token I haven't narrowed it down yet. Thanks.
