have no idea how old ..markings are hard to read but they are old

 

[Woodland Detectors]

Oh yes they are old, but you have to get those markings posted to ID it ok?
I would really like to know it's age as well.

Well, if you want to make the British flag appropriate, you will probably need a plane or ship ticket.

Seriously, welcome to the forum and very nice finds. Were these in a house you bought here? Let us hear a little more story behind them. They appear to have some silver plate left on in places, or are they silver? As Woodland said, try to get some pics of the markings.

i found them in an old basement crawl space doing a job. the house owner said take them so i did...didn't have to twist my arm....also while digging up the crawl space i found what looks to be very old lead soldiers and a watch, medicine bottle tops and buttons...the house is over 100 years old and is near fort niagara

You've got some really unusual and valuable stuff the BM!
Your silver finds are likely silver plate and date to the 1920's.
Best of luck with the rest of your dig!

Hope you don't mind that I re-sized your pics for you.
