I did a short hunt around an old home just down the road from me today and came up with one silver dime dated 1917, 4 memorial pennies and a clad dime. The silver dime was found just off the right hand side of the brick walkway at the front of the house and was about 4" down..... Opps, I put a slight scratch on it getting it out of the hole, but I can live with that.
Lots of bottle caps that weren't dug on previous hunt, but I did clear a few of them out today.
Last time I hunted here, I found a very corroded large cent, so I was digging more iffy signals than before hoping for an 1800 era coin, but not today.
I did find this one object and need some help on IDing it.
It looks like some kind of buckle and appears to be made of bronze or brass.
Anyone have any ideas on this piece? The house dates back to 1824.
Thanks for looking and any help with ID,
Felix
