Nice Variety of Finds at 1790s House!

[grasshopper]

Recently got the go-ahead at a 1790s house. I've been working on getting permission here for a couple of years now and the new owner finally said go for it!

I didn't find a ton of stuff that dates to the period of the house, but it was a fun couple days of digging. Coin highlights include the gorgeous 1843 LC, 1912 barber dime, 5 Indians, and a handful of wheats/newer silver. The crusty coin is CT copper. The bar token is interesting too. Unfortunately the ring is plated.

Relics include 2 pocketknives, skeleton key, bell, heart buckle cover, and the toy Derringer gun. I can't seem to find an exact match for the gun, it's plastic but the hammer/trigger are metal.
