Joe and I hit an old site while we were waiting to
get to a new site, a 1740s house on 26 acres.
I got two Indians, 1896 and a 1861 fatty, at the
first house.

The rain came in hard, so the second hunt was
shortened. I did, however get a very nice Colonial
Shoe Buckle with a bit of Silver Gilt still on it.

Re: 1740 House First hunt

That is a very nice buckle! I've got a few colonial era shoe buckles but none as ornate as that!

Re: 1740 House First hunt

I was cleaning out my pouch from this hunt and
found a brass Budha turtle, probably VERY modern,
and a flat button. I was SO excited at Joe's 1736
half penny I forgot about these. LOL!
