3/3/12 beach finds

[wwwtimmcp]

I got out for 2 hours early this morning. the wind was howling from the ssw, which pushes the water over to buffalo and left us a little dry. my best finds were a nice brass buckle, it looks very similar to the british cartridge box buckle 1750-1781, but a little smaller only 1 3/4"x1 3/8". it was found under a rock ledge inches from where the cutlass handle was found. and a neat spoked shiv(pulley) , I will get this thing an electrolysis bath as there is something cast on the shiv itself. 9 golf balls,lots of can slaw,1lb of sinkers,2 cigarette lighters,a live 12ga shotgun shell and a bottle bottom of light green hand blown glass. I think this is part of the medicine bottle I found a few years back.

sorry no photo's but my card reader still says the computer does not recognize it in the usb port.
happy hunting to all.
