US Somthing? Possibly CW Era, Need ID!!!

[DeArmitt Pa]

Well. we went back down to the farm in Cumberland today. The other week my father-in-law found a Union Spur. Hopefully I have somthing Union too, but I don't know what it is, I need help on this one. I also found a flat button and a decorative whatsit. Also a pocket watch which I have ID'ed already. Possibly a Hampton Pocketwatch circa 1903 give or take. Was made in Canton Ohio.

I agree, the watch is part of a first decade 1900s Hampden (Spelling?) Pocket Watch 'Champion'.

Our esteemed friend here, PBK, has identified these in the past as late 1800-early 1900 US Calvary horse blinder rosettes.

I agree with him.

I was going to guess WWI

Nice bunch of finds

Very nice finds. Congrats!
I think the mystery piece in the upper right is part of a saddle shield. I think Buckleboy ID'd these on some previous posts.
I have three or four of those myself.
Great job,

I agree thats what it is, but the age is probably a little off. The letter style is different, plus mine is plated silver. If those ones on ebay are on the original leather, then they weren't plated silver because it would still be there. Correct me if Im wrong but I am just guessing at that. Thanks for an ID on the whatsit though.

It is 1/2 of a strap guide. We are still debating what they were attached to. Late 1700s/early 1800s.
