That's some really neat finds.....it alot harder to finds sites from that time frame here in the mid west..
There are a few leads i've been working on from the 1700 french fur trading.
Along the Wabash River near me...still working on them though.
I am curious.. Are they worth alot of money? ... Or. You guys might be like me...
Hard to even think about putting a price tag on?? Was just wondering..
At any rate .... Fascinating. Finds!

Very good Question
Value??
I would think it would depend on which kind of metal it was made from, i.e copper, silver , pewter.
Also the design pattern on the shoe buckle
Happy Treasure hunting
