My first target was the Admiral Dewey Antique silver spoon
Found my first old buckle, my first was a remake, and found my first LC

any ideas on the age of the buckle, please post

*UPDATE* The coins are done, they came out good.

Your buckle could be anywhere from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s. It is a horse bridle buckle or similar piece of horse tack.

Great spoon!

Can't wait to see the coins.

Harsh polishing is probably the last thing this spoon needs. Dug out silver's surface can be very brittle and when polishing it you can loose some detail and metal. I believe these souvenir spoons are ca early 20 century.
