Metal Detecting
Spent the better part of Monday detailing my truck; it needed it and was long overdue. Mid-afternoon I drove to the city to detect at Druid Hill Park and had a great couple hours. One find is a first for me, a buckle that looks the part of a spectacle buckle. Also dug a fatty IHC and a 1902, a 1926 Buff, 1917S Merc, 1901 Barber dime, and a plated collar stud.

Very nice buckle, would love to find one myself, but I would probably have to drive a couple hundred miles east :laughing7:
I believe it is late 17th century, but Crusader or others might give you a better estimate.
I agree, screams 17th C to me.
 
Thanks, Crusader, for weighing in on the buckle.
 
Thank, Jamie. Nox was ‘on fire’ ��
 
Thanks, toasted. Unlike some parks, we are allowed to detect this one, right up to the old house.
 
Congrats on the old coin shooting and very cool buckle :occasion14:
 
That’s a cool buckle
