Some finds from a few places. Token and bow pin came out near the fancy sash buckles.
Anyone ever hear of "Premier" branded snap buttons? I found a spill of 6 of them. Patent date one back is April 12th 1904 . Based on patent they may have been made by Scovill mfg Co. These appear to have been used on leather because I found the one of them in leather with its back part of snap still attached. Some backs were found loose.
Wheaty is a 1911.
Buckle may not be old?? It's gold colored and was a few inches not deep with its leather still in it though in bad shape. Cleaned up really nice.
Very tiny piece by wheaty I think is silver though it was a mid tone. No idea what it's from. Open to suggestions.
