Got in a hunt before the massive storm front moved in.....scooped up CountryMusicNut early in the A.M and headed out to some colonial sites we researched and discovered. I thought for sure the ground was gonna be solid as a rock, but to our suprise it was actually nice and soft under the leaves...it has been pretty cold in New England lately. Anywho....here's my finds...A nice 90% complete ;D shoe buckle...!!woo hoo...some colonial buttons.....The Pewter button appears to be some sort of early Military Button, it appears to have a crown? and some cursive on it...I"m having a hard time making it out....the button has almost a reeded rim...I'm stumped on it..PLEASE HELP. Had an awesome day, thanks for lookin T-NET!

Love the shoe buckle ! I am curiuos as to the ID of the pewter button. Are more pics possible at different angles and lighting sources!

Real nice shoe buckle! I'm curious about the pewter button - was there anything on the face? Looks like a Rev War type pewter...
 
Cool stuff.
I love that site. What do you know about it, and the cool stone wall?
