At least you picked up a few relics. :yes: With the onset of cooler weather you may start to see even more activity at those sites.

Great relics.

Just being in those kind of history rich areas would be exciting for me.

It's a fascinating type of hunting you cellar hole dwellers do.

Congrats and good luck on getting coins on your next hunt.

its a plain , thinned squared frame , not very curved and just a tad smaller than what were use to . plus the tongue is designed different from the pitchfork type so i say its more of a 1740's to1760's era buckle than later varieties , Dave . eace:
