Not bad for a back yard find

[SwampCreek]

Hello all. I've been lurking on this site for a few months enjoying looking at everyones finds, hoping one day to have an interesting find of my own to post. I found this yesterday afternoon in my back yard after digging a Lincoln and a few other pieces of mystery metal.

I'm very excited as this is second colonial era find from my yard! The other was a fired musket ball. I'm hoping there are a few more surprises left.

Terrific!! It just goes to show you that you should start out in your own yard. Way to go!!
