Revolutionary war era relics with some whatzits - POWDER FLASK????

[GWWJR]

There are many pictures. I posted the button of the No Stamp Act yesterday. Here are some pics of the stuff I found at the same site. Some could be military. The site was abandoned by 1779 so I am told. It was nice to get out this time of year although it was very hot and dry. The field where the home site is will be under pavement soon as a development is going in. I could not resist swinging for a few days before it is gone forever. I think I found a homemade powder flask. Also maybe a part of a two piece buckle. Maybe a shoulder buckle as well...military? I don't know. I found allot of buttons, buckles and odds and ends.


The whole lot of stuff together:

The possible flask: (it is copper and obviously hollow with a solder seam on one side, the same side where the flap that covers the end is - I cant think of what else it could be)

So, I hope you enjoy. I sure had fun out there! Maybe I can get back once more before its all gone? HH, Gary
