Started off the new year with a few beautiful relics including what looks to be my first 17-1800s shoe buckle? It looks amazing and I'd love to find the rest of it. Took a ride to a permission site and found a few keepers including an 1889 IH penny, some bullets, a cool padlock fricken love old padlocks!! and some other odds brass pieces including a cool gear wheel and some heavy lead! Walked by a barn that's about all fallen down and found two beautiful clay goblets from an unknown time period and a cool sickle piece. Next to my Indian I found this awesome piece of old heavy white mug glass or porcelain with a king on it( kept it for the showcase to dress it up a bit) haha. Last but not least dug a hard 86 and found this old sterling silver bracelet along a wagon trail in front of property weighing 18grams! :headbang: I'll take it!! Any info on the type of buckle and time period it's from would be great, thanks guys, HH!

I liked the goblets as soon as I seen them in the picture. Could you post some closer pictures of just them?
