Did a two hour hunt today on a revolutionary site. Found a great stirrup made of brass. Not positive of the age but a fellow t-net friend of mine said it could very well be late 1700's. Problem was he was driving and couldn't more than glance at it.

I'm trying to find more info on the stirrup so please if you can positively ID it, chime in. Either way, I LOVE IT!!

Also found a barber quarter, button, and IHP's.

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

Thanks Brad. I knew what it was right away but texted 'ol Bill for confirmation. This is one serious relic and I'm beyond excited to add it to my case!

Thanks DD. I heard a lot of stirrups of this era were made of iron and these were actually called English Rustproof. The Barber was 8" down - thought it was a lot older before I dug it;) oh well!
