Complete Colonial shoe buckle!

[Mr. Digger]

Multiple hunts and locations shown here. Dug my first complete Colonial shoe buckle since getting the Nox 800. Rang up as a 26. It swiveled flawlessly right out of the ground! Also found a nice knee buckle in a different location. The coins are New England copper mystery discs....thin and 1/2 cent or farthing size. That little sterling locket found with bracelet-length chain must be old as there is no sterling or 925 mark on it but it's definitely silver (the locket at least, maybe not the chain). That silver blob next to it was definitely a silver coin of some sort that was in a fire but I just can't ID it. I think that is one of those little lead toy pistols that would actually fire, but any help on an ID would be appreciated. Thanks for looking!

Nice shoe buckle! Good luck with those coppers, I hope you can ID them. If nothing else works, try burnishing them.

Stellar hunt, love the shoe buckle, I didn't even know a knee buckle was a thing,

Great Saves of the Colonial Shoe buckle, the lock, and the other Saves as well. It looks like you are onto a great site. Well Done.
