What the heck is this??
Found this today, at a place that has been very good to me over the last year. Some of my oldest finds have come from this place, 1600s and 1700s coins.
The only reason I'm posting this is because it came from the money depth, thats 8inch down.
Any help would be great..
Thanks for looking.
George

My first thought is it's off a bridal.

This guy told me he lost a badge...ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1436883070.307547.webp

Actually it's a great find. Old for sure. Is it from that spot where you found the cut 4 real? 8" there in the tan dirt is money baby!

It's not exact but could be a makers plate of sorts. This one is 1869. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1436884864.588132.webp

My second guess is a firefighter shield, mid-1800's. The style is similar to that period and being on the smaller side I guess it's not police. Hey, I tried bud.

Thanks again for the ID on the 1790 1-Duit. I was hoping I could repay you.

Almost looks like it had an attachment pin on the back running vertically, which doesn't make sense to me. With no writing on the front, I am guessing rosette from horse tack.

Nice find. And as always, best of luck to you!
