Dec 1 copper # 61 + misc. TINY buckle ?

I went to a certain spot, and some of it was still undetectable, got 6 or 7 buttons in the same area as before. Back up a step I wasn't there more than one minute before I got the first coin. Back up a step, left the camera home, realized after a mile from home, wasn't going back for it. The first coin was an 1854 New Brunswick half P token. Top left of last pic. Then came a bunch of buttons, of note one tombac, and one cuff with design, cool. Shows you how much you miss on the first visit.

Oh yeah this is the smallest buckle i ever found. and after 4 years still learning. The other copper is an 1859 Province of Canada, not bad would clean up even better. Anyway, like Terry Clarke says, I've got better things to do.

Tomorrow is another day, good luck out there.

Good potential there...I got out for a couple hours today and ended with a decent condition Speed the Plough/Success to the Fisheries token.

Thanks Romeo, I know, But like I said before there is a 50 - 75 foot strip that is undetectible at this time. There is more there to find for sure. Conditions will be right soomer or later.

Congrats on a "speed the plough" frankly I don't think I found one of those. Nope, I haven't. Frankly this site gave many pre 1800's coins was surprised at what the coins turned out to be today. The 1859 I thought for sure was going to be a blank, but will be a nice coin with a bit more cleaning. The NB piece is in bad shape, no hope for that one.

Thanks Mr. Patch,

That is a lot of information.

I did suspect that those buckles did predate wristwatches as one person had suggested, although the size was appropriate for such a purpose.

Thanks man.

It's very thin, but good though. $20-$30 is a fair price.
