So far I have found all these in my yard in Harpers Ferry,wv. I've tried doing research on them but didn't come up with anything. The best thing I think I've found so far is the 1807 One Cent. If anybody can help Thanks in advance

Picture two is a pewter spoon or fork handle. I like the Eagle stamp, someone should be able to date that for you, but it looks period to me.

Picture three looks like a flat or simple two piece button with a missing shank. Anything on the front of it?

Picture four looks like a roundball

You live in prime country for old things, that's for sure. I grew up just outside of Harpers Ferry in Kearneysville, lots of history in that area!

Picture 4 I think is too small to be a round ball

:icon_scratch:You do understand there are many different calibers of round ball?Appears to be a .50 cal to me.Absolutely not "too small",to be one

Just jokin kuger. That ball just looked small in his hand but when I put one of my musket balls in my hand its definitely a round ball
