A good couple of relics with my equinox 600. Flat button says extra rich another word I can’t really tell but prolly colour or orange if I had to guess. Nice shank though. Second peice is lead. I assume it is excess cut from a poured round ball. The shape though resembles a leg and a foot so maybe it was an old lead figure. No telling I like it either way.

Button shows your in the right place. Not sure that Lead is a cut off casting spur though, looks like melted camp lead.

I have found several flat buttons a couple 2 peice buttons. Thimbles pewter spoon handles broken stirrups a pair of reigns guides. Lots of small round balls, a few fired musket balls and one fired civil war 3 ringer. Lots of square nails and my pride and joy a 1835 capbust halfdime. It’s my grandparents place now mine there is their house(1960) and a couple years ago through detecting I discovered there was something there early 1800’s through about 1910 with the items I can roughly date.
