Buckle

[SquidRow]

Out in the middle of nowhere found some coins and this buckle. The coins were three wheat pennies and large cent and a small cent that is thicker. I can't quite ID them now, going to try and get them cleaned. I can't wait to look some more! The day was awesome just being out but so much better finding things!!

Nice early buckle frame and tongue. Just missing the chape. Nice find!

Cool finds, hopefully you can find a year on that LC. I thought I was the only one that searches middle of nowhere wooded areas. That's proof that anywhere can produce keepers.

Nice buckle find!

I believe it to be from 1720 - 1790...

Great looking buckle, congrats. Have you figured out the copper yet, maybe a Fatty IH?

Haven't cleaned the coin up enough to ID yet
