Big Congrats
You scored today! silver plate is a first seen find any maker visible?
Intact buckle is an absolute beauty !
Silver shaker & filigree brooch, awesome
BTW, your spoon is the 'Olive' pattern, and the third found recently,
came out originally in 1840s, is it a Meriden or Rogers ?
(Meriden is earlier)
"wooded area next to park" sounds familiar
Reconnasance?
Best digs, Herbie

Nice old buckle... I've got some that came out like that one almost like yours mabe a tad earlier. I like the old buckles & when they come out whole and in that shape I really like it.
Take Care,
