I dug this super sweet colonial shoe buckle and 1817 large cent at an 1810ish home site near Lebanon Ohio. The eagle button is from the National Home for Disabled Veteran Soldiers, post civil war. The buckle measures 2 1/2'' x 1 1/2'' and all 3 pieces are in moving condition...the best one ive dug.

that is one of the best looking dug examples of a shoe buckle I have seen in a long time. Congrats on a very nice find! the Veterans button is nice as well - I have never dug one but on my wish list.
 
What a perfect example of that shoe buckle. They were pretty big back then, weren't they?
 
Very nice shoe buckle. Tough to find them still together and not many come out functional. Congrats
 
very nice finds from a neighbor!
 
Still hoping I can find a complete one, I have most of the components. Fantastic condition!
 
You're definitely on the right spot with finds like those. Keep hitting that spot hard! :thumbsup:
