Early buckle, tombacs and more

[trapperart]

Went to the sight this morning, where I found the 1670s token. I think the buckle is early, but I can't find an exact match. Maybe Crusader will set me straight. Good luck to all. Art

I'm not sure some kind of lighting fixture piece?

Nice finds. Id say that buckle is definately 1700s maybe 1600s

You might be surprised to learn that these have quite a early date range....1500-1650..nice find.

Think it's from a dagger. I have dug one and seen similar posted a few times.

The "lighting fixture?" piece is a dagger hilt from at least the 1700s... ugh... WOW!!!

It looks like you have a good early site, for your side of the pond.

Never dawned on me that it could be a hilt. I usually think horses but this might be a zebra. Thanks for your input

Thanks after looking and thinking about it you're probably right Isaac thinks so also

I agree it does seem to be variant of that form of buckle.

Yeap, not sure of the date though.

Wow. Man you have an old site. I'd camp out there. Thats cob country all day long.

Very nice Art. To find relics from such an early site is incredible. Congrats to you Mister.

Nice and early buckle bud. Actual age will be difficult to figure, but I bet you can count on it being a 17th century drop. The dagger looks a bit newer - 18th C.

Wow man! Congrats on some killer finds again!

That's a heck of a nice Buckle Art.
Nice
