Hello all! I had a great time yesterday & found some cool relics. I found a really nice 1918 silver Franc but I hit it with my shovel! (DOH!) I also found an 1886 Indian head penny, Red Goose Shoes aluminum token, an awesome brass key, small silver plated buckle, a medicine bottle & some other stuff. My guess is the site that we found was late 1800s- early 1900s judging by the finds. I'm not sure what the oval item is with iron attached or the large brass object (same pic). Any help would be appreciated. It was a hot, humid day in SC, come on fall! Thanks for looking & HH!

Yeah, I really like the little buckle too. It's a bummer about the silver coin, but at least it's only a French one! Ha! I would've really been sick if it was a nice old US silver or gold coin!
