Very nice! Looks like a good hunt over all. Plenty of good CW relics in that pic.

Awesome! Highly likely that is part of a Springfield Rifled Musket trigger gaurd and trigger as well. Note all Rifle Muskets are rifles.

Most of the coins from that era are holed.. that is one sweeet coin.. To bad it is holed cause that is in exceptional condition....
 
No complaints here nice 1/2 :headbang:
 
That is a real beauty there.

The hole sucks but atleast it's small and at the top.

I Want One Sooo Bad :sad10:
 
Great finds Mike.
Congrats on that fine looking silver coin. I know most folks don't like a holed coin due to the value lost, but to me they really mean more than one that isn't holed. It must of meant a great deal to someone in those days.

Can I ask what it says on the oval tag in the upper left of one of your pictures?
I found a similar one from the 1930's that said something like, "Property of........, If found please return to........Reward offered."

Thanks,
MM
