Finally got around to cleaning finds from the last couple of hunts with Dave. Spent most of my time watching the Red sox after work.
Made a few neat finds and I am looking for help on identification of the large clasp looking piece with the three fork looking prongsIt has a pattern on it and a curved shaped to it. I pulled it from a site that produced all colonial relics including the small buckle that I believe is late 1600's to very early 1700's circa.
On one of the hunts we actually ran into two old timers that were hunting near some site we had mapped out. This was the 1st time we ever ran into someone else while cellar hole hunting. I think we scared the heck out of them :hysterical:
Got a nice etched design tombac and half shoe buckle frames. I also got a good laugh digging an Iron cast toy car circa 1920-30's made by The Manoil CO.
Maybe Dan or George might be able to ID that clasp looking relic and small buckle that I believe to be 1600's circa?
