Colonial cellar keeps giving.....

[johnnyblaze]

Stopped in a nearby colonial cellar that has been hammered pretty well

Was moving trees and branches and was able to pull some good finds


Probably abandoned around the Civil War era.

Grabbed some nice little Colonial buckles and a silver plated buckle
Not sure if its a shoe or waist it does have a curve
The age is a mystery to me also

Got a thimble and some buttons

Keep the passion high

Looks like a mid 1700s shoe buckle, like that one

 

[BobinSouthVA]

Yeah man that's a nice one.

Nice finds JB

The first buckle is definitely a shoe buckle. I believe the other two are also shoe buckles, even though they are a bit smaller.

I like the button with the wavy lines too

Nice buckles J.B. That site may still have some more coins and relic left yet. HH, Quindy.

Nice buckles you found there Blaze, the large one is most likely around REV.War era. found a piece much like it from that type site.Which also produced my largest or would have been buckle Cru Id it as a shoe buckle.But would have been a monster if all together.I've put the biggest chape & tongue piece I have in it to get a better Idea of it's size.My best drawing & size it must have been below.Also the piece that looks like yours.
Take Care,
Pete,
