First one of these I've found.
Most of the finds have been world war 1 era in this area.
Thanks for checking it out

Thanks for sharing...

 

[Msbeepbeep]

That's in really good shape!

 

[GatorBoy]

I know.. I think a lot has to do with the very loose and well draining sand I found it in.
Here is a few other finds from the area... oops..sorry for the repeats.
Also.. I believe now that it is a dagger sheath.

Looks like you are on it. Have you got an ID on the emblem on the scabbard and is that a match safe with the bird on it?

 

[DigIron2]

nice stuff!

 

[GatorBoy]

Thanks guys yes it is a match safe I believe.. I haven't even attempted to ID the emblem yet.
Seems I started finding things all at once.. I'm actually busy on a shipwreck artifact that has my hands full at the moment.

Hey GatorBoy good to see some of you fiinds.I wondering how you and the metal detector was working out.Looks like you are making some great finds.

 

[GatorBoy]

Good to hear from you too my friend.
Thank you and I hope the hunting has been treating you good as well.. Animal and artifact.

Interesting that it looks like a japanese or chinese from the letters on that button thing and that brass peice !Cool find

 

[GatorBoy]

Thank you... the button thing I think you're referring to is a lead bail or cloth seal the letters on it are F. E. C. They stand for Florida East Coast Railroad.

I think that's the throat, not the tip, of the scabbard, for a Fraternal sword like Knights of Columbus, Masons, etc. If you do a search for those swords, you can probably match up the design of the frog attachment for the baldric.
