Two hours at the Colonial beach

[RelicMedic]

Hey folks! There's a few whatsits in this bunch. Dug a few coins, all of which are pretty roached. There's only two that are identifiable. One is an 1812 half penny, the second one from this site. The other is the 1816 sixpence. Found a silver plated button on the way to the shore as well. There is a ton of brass, copper and old lead on this beach!!! I've been stock piling the lead behind a big Rock above the high tide mark and will go back and get it when I feel ambitious lol. I must have dug over 5 pounds of it yesterday and at least a couple pounds of brass spikes. The mystery items are the door knob looking thing, the ornate pewter piece and the eyeball find...that non metallic pencil or sharpening stone thingy. Any ideas? The rest is self explanatory. Thanks for looking and HH!!

That one piece looks like some sort of foundry casting maybe they pour silver you know some sort of pot metal in there and make some sort of object pretty interesting

 

[RelicMedic]

It's possible. The concave side is plain, but the convex side is pretty! Lots of intricate design

Very nice,,, all that lead,, fishing sinkers?

 

[RelicMedic]

The lead is mostly chunks of lead (all low alpha), some flat, some rolled pieces a few net weights too. The copper and brass are spikes and 1/4" thick plates about 7x7" No idea what they were used for. I hid it all so I can go back and get it later. Lots of weight there. Too much to drag around
