3 Colonial shoe buckles and Colonial Silver!!

[Brewha08]

Went out for a hunt today with two fellow members of TNet, (Vineyarder, Dig-MV) we decided to check out an old field in the middle of the woods. The field is located in a very old area of our hometown and is pretty close to several colonial homesites. We have spend a couple of days in areas close to the field, walking cart trails and finding some pretty decent finds but never spent anytime in the field until today.
Started off slow until I headed up towards one end of the field into the woods and noticed what could possibly have been a cellar hole and a trash pit. Got myself a nice 12-43 on the Etrac and dug my first ever 1 Reale! Called the guys over to check it out and we then spent the next two hours on the edge of the field near the cellar hole. Ended up with a pocket full of old buttons and and 3 complete shoe buckles. My collection of complete shoe buckles doubled in size in a single day! Cant wait to get back out to the site and do some more digging to see what else we can find! If anyone has any info on what the purple glass looking thing is or the medallion please let me know!

HH and thanks for looking!

Steve, it looks to be a pin of some sort, the back is tough to see but does have some nice detail along the rim. Heres some better pictures
