Ornate saddle pommel, watch winders and sash buckle, LC, IHP, & relics

[pa-dirt_nc-sand]

Hit a couple well pounded 1800’s sites in the park woods. Extended out from the cellar holes and hit the still dormant briar overgrown areas. Also dug a record number of shotgun head stamps and shell casings.

The Saddle pommel horn was a really deep 34/35, like 12” down. Anyone know how to date this?

The hand forged brass nails sure sounded good, first time finding this style.

Thx!

Nice hunt Thad
Love those watch winders and the sash buckle is very cool. You usually don't find both pieces.
