possible colonial finds..

Abandoned farm field..square metal isn't too, too old but has 'rear closed' individually stamped letters on it. The bigger circular item seems brassy underneath the dirt and decorative. The other may be a washer. The devils head thing might be a buckle? Bent and delicate.

The "devil's head thing" looks like a broken 20th-Century garter-clasp. Broken meaning the loop for attaching the clasp to the garter-strap is broken off. He's a photo showing an extremely similar, earlier one which was patented in 1895. It was found by our fellow TNet-er Thrillathahunt.

Looks like that's it. Mine doesn't have any lettering it seems but maybe a little extra toasted. When I picked it out of the dirt I thought something broke off but didn't see where it came from. I thought I had found a cellar hole nearby but its hard to tell.
