Any help identifying this ornate little find would be awesome! Found it today at the site where I dug my first large cent & civil war button.
Sorry for the bad pics! ..got home and decided to hit it with a toothbrush which was a big mistake(These pics taken BEFORE the tooth brush massacre).

you need to look for the other half. start where you found the wreath and work in a circle out from there as a starting point. going around and around ,it may be as much as 50 ft away . put in the time and try to find it.

Will do,, I'd planned on hunting a little longer today but the ground is already frozen up here in Maine. I had some good targets but couldn't even get the shovel tip to break surface. Looking forward to part 2 of the buckle search come Spring!
