Archaic point, Revolutionary War, 1812, early US cent ... a few finds.

[Aureus]

Had 3 hunts with some interesting finds dating from Archaic period to mid 1800's Some farmers are kind enough to let me access their fields even after they planted the crops and I mange to go there until the first growth.

My favorite relic was an eyeball find. Couldn't believe my eyes at first when I spotted it laying perfectly flat on the ground. Not 100% sure of its use (knife,arrow or spear), period or material. But it's a BEAUTY! By far, the nicest point in my collection.

Archaic or Early Woodland point. It's large one,with 80 mm in length. Looks similar to the one in the link http://projectilepoints.net/Points/Susquehanna_Broad.html



Another great find was my second Revolutionary War 67th of foot. A pretty rare button to find as only around 80 soldiers of that regiment participated in Burgoyne's Campaign.


Than, an other nice button. Rev War 29th. Same type as the one from last week. Always happy to find this regiment.


Late 1700's to 1812 Artillery


A musket trigger guard and a possible piece of a buttstock


Not many coins. Most were George III halfpennies. Strangely, those that survived were American.
An early US Large cent - 1801


Hard times token. Walsh's N.Y. 1835


My only silver find was this unusual solid silver tube. Made of silver wire (very complex work) appears to be hand made.
Might be a decoration for an early smoking pipe stem.


A few knee or hat buckles.


My most beautiful Dandy button. Silver and gold plated. Great patina.


A very early button from mid to late 1700's. Only have found one of those in the past.


A couple of silver plated buckles.


Had lots of fun!

Thanks for the comments.

WOW! I’d be camping out at that spot Super finds!

 

[ColonialDude]

beautiful finds! That point is stunning and in a very high quality material!It's made of chalcedony. One of the finer and more desirable materials out there in my opinion and a lot less common. It appears it was a stemmed spearpoint which has since had the base broken off. Still a beauty regardless! The military finds are great too!

Great assortment of early finds there.

That dandy button is a beauty and those Rev buttons are fantastic too. Sounds like you're on an old site...

Those finds are all fantastic Aureus but with the translucency on that point, it takes the cake.

Wow-there are a lot of great finds in this post. That is a beautiful point/blade-excellent workmanship and very thin. The Rev War buttons are great finds and that button really is a dandy (pun intended).
