Got out over the past 2 weekends for a few hours...Found a beautiful silver plate open work button., And a nice Dandy button....Found a toasty William III...And a decent KG1...And what I think is a furniture plate of some sort...it was about 11 inches deep! Also found a large thimble.

Some old digs there Brian. A KGI and a William III are a good indication of the advanced age of your site. Nice! :occasion14:

Those are some nice relics from a very old site-I especially like the open-work button

Nice early site as confirmed by many of your finds. If that piece that you're calling a furniture plate has hooks on the back, it's probably a leather bridal ornament.
