Bayonet Frog from the Siege of Savannah

[Bharpring]

I dug this British bayonet frog at a site in Savannah GA that was part of the battleground from the “Siege of Savannah” during the Revolutionary War (a part of downtown Savannah). This piece is brass and hand filed. I am glad that I was able to save this cool piece of American history. The video of this hunt will be uploaded on YouTube in the coming months.

It would have been from something like this. It attached to the bayonet scabbard.

Very interesting piece. I would not have recognized its significance if I had dug it. Glad you found it, and hope you find more there. (Love that Seated Liberty too.)

That is a sweet dig.. I found this one at a colonial site back in Dec. Southeastern NC.

I wouldn't know what that was if I found it, but now that I know that is a pretty stellar find!
