Found remnants of old 1700s house site produced lots of relics

[Gregg3131]

Hit a new permission 5 minutes from my house which is very surprising as I am definitely not in the historic part of Virginia and it’s mostly all developed. Did not even realize there was a 60 acre farm tucked away just outside a housing development. The old timer said he believed there was an old house at one time on the top of the ridge. Sure enough colonial brick pieces and iron everywhere. Obviously never hunted based on all of these finds in the field where the house was. Very cool token from 1897.,1906 IHP, I think that may be a candle ring turned into a human ring? The button I think is civilian early 1900s(was a heart stopper in the hole) pieces of colonial shoe buckles,etc. 1700s dandy button I normally have to drive an hour or more to get to these type of spots so this is very welcome.

Great looking homestead finds Gregg.
Looks like you're going to be there for a while, unless the site is slated for development, then I'd be spending all of my time there!
