Thank you in advance for your help.
I am a newbie to the site and have recently found some interesting items.
I need help identifying the item below.
It has an engraved design on the front.
Thanks!

Hard to say with a piece such as this one. Someone else might be able to identify it or, at least, offer a better suggestion. I say that it appears to be a decorative part of a larger item. Maybe part of a scabbard? The other item looks like a 2013 penny.


Welcome aboard!

Thanks so much for your help.
It started raining so I had to abandon the hunt.
I am hoping to return to the area to search for any piece relating to this item.
A scabbard is a def. possibility.
The other item (penny) had me puzzled for hours! Thanks for solving that mystery as well (hahaha!)
Im glad to have found this site

I hope you can make it back soon. There's always the possibility that the rest of the item remains buried. Let's hope anyway!

Hahaha! You're welcome! I can spot a penny from a mile away

Glad you found the community! I'm quite new here, but feel right at home. There are some great folks here.
