All of this was found at the place I used to put this together http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/t...-ve-been-working-month-so-am-legit-proud.html

I found a couple of suspender buckles, both a little outside of the main area and in the woods where I normally have trouble accessing with the summer plants.

And then I got a frozen clod of icy dirt (this is right near where I broke my shovel). Think how excited I was to see this..

JUST missed being an indian head, but fortunately, it's my oldest wheat penny at least! 1909! Sadly no mint mark :P

And check it out, one of the suspender buckles is the first one I ever got with writing on it. It has a date!

Love the suspender buckle...found one a long time ago just like it. What is strange is the two different patent dates, only one day apart. Wonder what that story is all about.

Maybe a little more of a search there may give up the hasp portion of it, it's probably nearby where you found the main portion.:thumbsup:
