I went back to the homesite where i found the early navy button. And wow! where do i start? I guess with the first hole i dug and the cut silver pops out!!! Unbelievable. My first... and second. Its two pieces smashed together! 1723. How cool is that. I dug what i thought was a heel plate with a heart on it but im not sure because its awful small. A nice eagle I button. A underwear button. A large final of some sort. A piece of a buckle i assume. A cool candle snuffer.a small lead piece that looks like it couldve been used as a nipple cover? A Zouave button. A pulled bullet. Some sort of lead cone. Maybe a game piece? And a trigger guard and trigger from what i think is a Enfield!! It was an awesome day. Thanks for looking. 20170204_194050.jpg 20170204_200135.jpg 20170204_104550.jpg 14862584503181743635971.jpg 1486258619721966435867.jpg 20170204_200123.jpg 1486259273797-1764183312.jpg

How very interesting! Never seen anything like two separate pieces of the same coin stuck together like that before, wonder how it happened? Very cool! :icon_thumleft:
Cool early candle snuffer scissors too!

That candle snuffer (or wick trimmer as it's sometimes called) is a great find as yours may be the only complete example I've seen dug. I've hunted at hundreds of colonial sites over the last 20+ years and only have a couple snuffer boxes to show for all my efforts. I'd love to have one of those in my collection. Very nice man!!

Looks as though it was beat together with a Hammer and punch?

I was very excited when it popped out. I actually dug the tip of it thats broken off the other day and put 2 and 2 together so to speak and it makes it a complete set. Thanks bill d. 1486336276445-177575875.jpg
