so,remember last week i got turned around? well old i never get turned around Todd got turned around :hysterical: i can here him screamin way in the distance...DAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! where are you! rofl
we both did pretty good though despite a half day.
a few buttons,one being a tombac.a couple knox obs :rolleyes: drew watch your back!
a odd knee buckle frame with the pin set on a diagonal pattern(never seen this before) :dontknow:
and a pretty nice complete colonial shoe buckle.

Re: COMPLETE COLONIAL SHOE BUCKLE & KNEE BUCKLE FRAME
It's so easy to get lost in our woods at this time of year. In addition to the crawling and flying blood suckers, the ferns are having a bumper year. That buckle makes it all fine :yes: ...and I don't ever remember having a double-knob day lol You could display all your ox knobs on a stick, call it a Shish-ka-knob. lol

It does look like the items that I would dig in TN while relic hunting...chances are good, I would definatly say from the era.
A nice haul of finds in a short period of time, though you paid for it in blood lol
