Hi all, my hunting partner and I got out Sunday and hunted an old log cabin site. We found a bunch of trash and horse harness articles. Gary found a neat token from Maumee City. Really neat token.
I found several buttons laying on top of the ground and a really nice, well sort of nice, Eagle button, down about 5 inches. Looks like it got hit with a plow. I also found a couple of clay marbles.
I guess my Big question is What is the Big Brass thing I found? I have an idea, that it might be a butt plate from the Revolution era. Not sure that is why I am asking your folks if you have an idea what it is. If it is a butt plate, what kind of rifle would it have come from and or age?
Thanks for looking at my post.
