Pounded a few foundations today, out of everything I found, the bell has the only readable date. Id say my best find was the buckle. note to self (dont rub indian heads for a date)...The bell says Pat Oct24 76 & May14 78, my guess is 1876 & 1878, overall, it was a short hunt, and im glad I got out,
Enjoy,

nice finds, that brass ring with the screw attached looks like it was a guide for the reigns on a horse drawn wagon. I found one last year but until I saw one with your other group of finds I didn't know what it was. thank you for sharing.
