sash buckle??

[No gold in NY]

Thanks to creskol who identified the sash buckle I posted about earlier. I found what might be another one on the same 1860's property.



I also found these other goodies.



The little one in the center appears to be a button. The front side is smooth except for pitting. The back has a ring of arrows and rosettes.

Seems like my Whites Coinmaster only wants to find relics. I want to find coins and jewlery.

Suspender buckle. Mid to late 19th C. http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/my-collections/141763-suspender-clip-showroom-showem-off-here.html

The center item is a shirt button. Earlier than the suspender buckle...

DCMatt is right. It's a suspender buckle and it's old (not as old as the button as Matt pointed out). Your suspender buckle has tines to secure the straps and that pattern is usually seen from the late 1850's until the early 1870's as a general guide. Many have patent dates on them. Good finds.
