Hello Everyone.. Ive been collecting indian artifact for the past 25 years and metal detecting now for about 6 years.. I found this badge on a old fort site what i believe to be of Col. John Cantines regiment "3rd regiment ulster county militia" Ive seen a few similar badges on here that were identified as saddle jewelry.. Did the average militiamen have this jewelry? could this possibly be something a VIP, Col. or Captain? possibly the initial of the VIP like Col. Cantine? I know he was very active in this area defending villagers from the tories and indians during this time frame.. The badge was found along a creek on a steep hill where they would have crossed to get to the fort.. All the other items in picture 2 are from the same site.. All the british coppers in photo are dated back to the early to mid 1700's.. Any help would be appreciated..
PS- Hope it didnt just come off the front of some bike..lol
