1829 capped bust half dime and many colonial buttons

[Gregg3131]

Great few days of digging colonial site in Southern VA in a few bean fields. Dug lots of old buttons including one that days to mid 1600s and one with pretty unique design, brooch etc. And ended with an amazing capped bust half dime towards the end of last day. Amazing piece of US history.

Great work man. Now go get an even older US silver!

That's a nice assortment spanning quite a few years. Congrats on the stunning half dime. What does the back of the brooch look like?

Sorry I can't give you any firm info on the brooch. My gut feel is 1850 to 1900.
