🥇 BANNER FRENCH MILITARY MEDALLION or BUCKLE COVER ??? ......and very cool bottle !!

[AQUA]

HEY GUYS AND GALS

Made it out for the day after not getting out for 6 or 7 days.... Cousin ED came along also.

Hit the woods to find some foundations ..... found 5 all together so was happy on that part.Cousin ED was finding bottles and some nice coins/pendants...nice old Brittania 1739.

Th bottle with the Fisherman holding the big codfish is awesome...we are fishermen so of course we love it !!!

Any ideas on his PENDANT with the portrait and the LION,S HEAD ??

The foundations were very trashy so I switched over to DISCRIM mode and sure enough I managed to separate out a cool find !!! .......Picked up this very interesting piece.....the tulip in the middle is the same as the one on NovaScotia 1800s pennies.

But the writing is what I assume to be French ??

Any help on some IDs on our finds would be appreciated.

Top 9 pictures are Cousin EDs.

That's a banner find there buddy, and your cod liver oil bottle is quite nice too.
If I were you I would take a little more time off and really hammer that site.

Amazing find! Congrats on once in a life time discovery.



Here is an 84th regiment button I found on the Virginia Peninsula. Don Troiani had some information on the unit, although I don't remember much of it right now. I'm sure he would love to see that find. Banner all the way.

Once again, looks like somebody had a productive trip out feeding the addiction :P I just recently pulled an 1886 penny out of the ground as well! As for the plate, im sure I'd have spent some time staring at it with eyes wide, asking "whaaats thaaat?" I'll be submitting my vote and get ya one step closer to that banner up there

TY for the BANNER vote Bryan6056

I think the addiction has just become much worse !!!

That's a French 84th. No record of service in North America.... but obviously the button made it over somehow.
