Lots of colonial era buckles , copper coins, silver and more

[Chief31]

Finally got out a few times now that farm fields are cut and hunting season is over in central Virginia , this is the combined haul of last 3 outings at a few different colonial Era farm permissions , nice assortment of different period relics (trash not shown lol ) always love digging colonial era buckles and was happy to find several different variants, some dating to the 1600s . 1812 Era militia button was a nice surprise, the pewter button looks quite crude and old and may have some design on it still trying to figure how to clean it , nice 1855 dime along with some toasted copper coins , the token metal souvenir piece from the Founders week event in Philadelphia 1908 is quite unique. , overall a great few days , great time of year to be out digging , happy hunting !

A GREAT bunch of finds - congrats !

I've gotten some excellent results cleaning old copper coins and relics with "Andre's Pencils.
I use mine all the time - a must have for colonial era hunters.
A set cost approx. $18.00 on the internet and there's videos on youtube showing you how to use them and before and after results.
