Dug a US Plate in rough shape.

I tried a new field tonight. The 1874 atlas showed a house way in the middle so I set off to find it. An hour later and alot of walking and I started hearing iron. I found some keepers. I have no idea if this is "or was" a belt plate or a box plate. It made my day though. What I assumed was a large cent turned out to be a Canadian Half Penny. 1837 I believe. I worked on it with the andre pencils and a light copper wheel. A little too much copper wheel I think but it cleaned up nice instead of mystery coin. Two eagle buttons. One smashed. A couple flat buttons. A large brass item. No idea. Some lamp parts. A candle holder ring. Some type of hammer head. Looks like an older clip. London on one of the flat buttons. I found three double eyelet items. Does anyone know what they were used for? I don't. Had a good time! Thats my second ever US plate. Its been abused no doubt. Good Hunting!
