Dug a nice piece of US history.

Dug this in a pasture opposite an early wharf along North shore of Lake Erie. CTX 6-8 inches easy signals. HH

Coming home with that would sure take the sting off a no silver hunt. Grats and thanks for shariing.

Great find! I am guessing you have little interest in US relics so I will trade you a very nice love token I found made from a 1800's silver Vicky 25 cent piece for the GW token. Just kidding of course. Please do update this post when you get a positive ID on that. Congrats on a very cool find!

 

[CrapOla]

Good finds, for sure

Impressive finds! It seems like your side of the lake has all the goodies...

Sweet finds, alot of folks don't know much about the long, sordid history of battles up and down the great lakes

I have always wanted to spend a few days hunting up and down the Canadian side of the Niagara River and in the Fort Erie area.

Lots of spots off limits but so much farmland.

Been in to studying warfare and military since I was a kid but it was the longest time, well into adulthood, before I started learning about what went on in my own back yard practically.

Here is 1 example thats pretty fascinating, battle of Mackinac Island, actually a series of actions over a period of time

I wonder if this was directly related to British firepower. Whenever I dig a musketball I immediately think Rev war and start begging for a USA button in good shape.

I think the bigger one is a commemorative token from Biden's first year in govt office.

What makes you say that?
Is it some kind of chinese coin? 🤣

I think that the comment was poking fun at how old Biden is.
