It looks like a British constabulary (Police) button (mid-late 19th C). Is there a letter at the bottom? (1 piece/two?) Backmark?

thanks.. hope i find it to.. I have never found 1 ...yet
 

You stated that you dont believe that bell is to old. I would say at least 1800s possibly 1700s. Looks like it has a cool design etched into it also. Nice video and finds

cool ...so what is it that makes you think its old ?...looks like a modern import from India to me .
 

I absolutely love that bell. Beautiful markings on it. :headbang: I think I'm seeing a harp on the back of your second copper so I was thinking Irish halfpenny... but my eyes may be playing tricks on me. You had a few great hunts. Congrats! :thumbsup:
 

I'm a expert by no means... It just appears to have some age to it by the design and patina. I'm sure there's someone on here that could give you a positive ID. Some close up pictures of it would be awesome.
 

Awesome assortment of finds! I love the constabulary button and the shoe buckle piece. Found one myself yesterday. Hopefully you can find the frame that baby came off. Keep up the great hunts bud
 

Yes the bell is cool thanks for looking
 

Awesome hunt and a great vid. Enjoyed it. Congrats
 

Thank you glad you liked it..
 

a great site with even better finds, really nice finds
 

Does anyone know anything about the axe head?? the button is really cool, I wish you could get an ID on the coin.
 

Sweet finds,,,wish I could go back that far in time where I live,,,1700's i mean.
 

The video was fun to watch. Some really cool digs.
