I went back to the woods today and located a few more foundations. I found one that looked nice and hit it pretty hard. I think someone had been there before me as there were iron pieces on a stump. i didn't get any coins, but found this small buckle. I have found a larger version of this one and it's one of my favorite finds.

I believe it is colonial era...correct me if I am wrong.

A lot of debate goes on about these. My personal belief is they are post Colonial.
 
:read2:

Would have said yes to it being Colonial, were it made from Bronze, but it looks to be made from stamped brass, which would make it later.
