Interesting pieces, looks like you're onto a good 'Hole'
Thing about this hobby is, you just don't what is going to turn up in the next second!
Keep it going and happy hunting

Cheers

Some very interesting finds, great fun.

Now if you don't mind some constructive criticism ?

Be real nice if you resized pics before posting. One good way is VSO image resizer.
A free small program easy to use. resize to 640 wide.

This pic uses 83% less memory, and fits on the page.
Just a sugestion, OK

The one Iron piece looks like a rabbit , almost like the old cartoon Rabbit from the 30's . Looney tunes of the old days.
Now are they that ? I can't say . But if you look at a couple of them it looks like they were made for a child's room or bed ?

Great finds though .

From what I can tell,they are all much older than that.....................at least one(the silver piece)is a Fur Trade era piece and I beleive the others may be trade Musket furniture :dontknow:

i found all in the same location, along with the serpant side plate, several musket balls and several copper tinklers (i think that is the correct name?). ok, keep in mind i am new to id'ing any items, but where do you see a rabbit? the items had a dark green patina, but i tried to clean it.....mistake i will never do again!! thanks for your input!!!
