I haven't been out detecting recently, and haven't been active on the forum lately so here are a couple finds I've made lately. I have pretty good ideas about all of these, but I would still like your input on them.

I believe that's a Ticonderoga #2 in the upper right corner! The other relics are pretty cool too. The gun looks like a very old toy gun but my favorite is the old buckle. It's got to be pretty old with those two pointy things on it. Congrats and HH, Dave.

Sam , congrats on still getting out I agree with Dave , the shell designed pewter spoon bowl is probably late 1700's era . The gun is an interesting piece and a great candidate for some electrolysis .
