CW Eagle plate plus more - Sat. hunt at 1830's property
I hit the 1830's CW property yesterday for about 4 hours. I only covered one side yard in this time.
Sorry you Northern folks, but it's supposed to be in the 70's here all week, so I'm not giving up yet.
One of my first digs was an Union Eagle plate of some sort. I know it is CW, but what was it used for?
I found my very first clay pipe piece too. I'm headed back out today for a bit, so I'll make this quick.
A few pieces I could use help IDing if anyone knows what they are. Here was Saturday's finds:
*A thin copper 3" x 2" CW EAGLE plate. It has 13 stars, and the words "E PLURIBUS UNUM" on it.
Was this a cover for something?
*A decorative tray (bent to pieces) with "Wm A Rogers 8327" engraved into it. I think it is silver plated copper or brass?
Possibly 1800's ?
*A headless Indian pin.
*A 1956 Raleigh, NC. vaccine tag.
*1800's lock.
*An old pocket knife.
Any idea of it's age?
*A square copper piece with two holes. It looks like a large button possibly?
Did they make buttons this big? Era?
*An 1800' 23mm flat button w/shank. No back mark.
*An 1800's 20mm flat button with "M AM" as a back mark.
Any idea on this one?
*My first clay pipe piece.
What era where these from?
*A fired CW bullet. At least I think it is? (Next to the vaccine tag in picture)
Thanks for looking.
Off to find more. Have a great week.
