GMs to supers to managers etc, it was a good day for sure , 2 bucket listers , the pewter bell and the stirrup! Found my 3rd 2center, and some other goodies , going back with the 5.3 coil, I've been told of seated being found near an old chimney sorta close by, I found 1864 Indian , barbers other silvers nearby years & years ago , so it was an active area for sure, got the itch out at least,:headbang:

Good job and love the arrowheads!
 

Nice finds, but those carriage bells are not pewter they are closer to a type of Tombac.

I think you have a fairly scarce button there as well!
 

Now that's a great way to be scratching the itch!
Not sure on what I'm liking more the copper/points/bell/or the button, and then the stirrup to make it a kick ass hunt in my books any day. Congrats!
 

Its all special. But I really like the Indian artifacts.

..: NICE ASSORTMENT of FINDS pghDFXer :..
Thanks for sharing!
 

Nice digs good job on permission pursuit ,and it even panned out.Seems when I've struggled for permission I don't find what I hoped for.
 

Could that button be an unknown rattlesnake button variety? I see 13 stars and that around it could possibly represent a rattlesnake(although it's unfortunately broke and might have broken the head part off.)
 

I like the finds, but I really like the points.
