I hit this buck today while detecting at an old lumberjack town. These are small villages with 10 to maybe 300 folks still living in them today. They were originally occupied by lumberjacks ca. 1860's to 1930's.
The northern most part of Michigan has many such villages and I hunt them.
By the way, this buck is really very small. It's smaller than a dime and was 4 to 5 inches deep. It's an old style pin.
Also, can U ID that snap thing in the second picture? I can't figure out what it was (is)
And too, does anyone know of a book or website on old civilian buckles? Maybe some I dig are horse buckles? Anyway, I dig loads of these of all sizes. Most are very deep and made of iron.
Thanks
