I hunted from 10 am till dark today. I got the three coin buttons and several buckles. I'm not good at dating buckles so if you know please chime in. The quarter is for size reference. One big button looks like what some call on here a tombac is that correct and what are they. Thanks for any info given. I am pleased with today's haul. I'm always grateful.

I do not know how to date the buckle but the top Center one looks Mighty old. The big thing on the right looks like a soldering iron tip to me

sent from my computer by frantically poking at the keyboard with a single finger

That one on the top, the rectangular one, is a shoe buckle frame! That is a sweet find, sent all the way from the colonial days, straight to your hand! NICE. A better pic of that seems to be in order.

Very well done sir.

Nice hunt, looks like you're onto a good site, what with that old shoe buckle. Hopefully there's some more still waiting for you there. :icon_thumleft:

Very well done sir.

It is pretty thin and was bent till I carefully straightened it a bit. It has a little plating still on it. Y'all be the judge ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1483024271.184286.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1483024324.187133.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1483024357.189329.jpg
