Who would have thought .... mass production in the 1790's lol lol But a lot of them are the same. Same mold, same cast I guess

I still think complete shoe buckles are better than coppers.

Sometimes they are, especially when you get a copper slug! Them shoe buckles almost always come out nice. Why didn't our forefathers have the insight to make coppers from buckle material lol Man o man what a collection we would all have. Ah heck, just make them coppers out of silver while you are at it rofl
