I got out to a spot I haven't visited in a while.
there's an old stone dam holding back a saltwater pond,
no sign of a mill though.
Dug a bunch of copper hardware.
a pair of pewter floral buttons, a rectangular pewter button,
and a couple of lead buttons, one is a nice floral.
Got some kind of silver dime, well its 18 mm.
best ID I can give it, this crust is tough.
Piece of a pewter platter, and a little buckle.
These finds show some age, nice relics.

I'm quite curious as to what type of dime that is or maybe it's a half reale? You could try(?) acetone(non oil based) to clean it, according to my coin guy who used to metal detect and owns a reputable coin shop this will not damage silver. If all else fails give it as soak and see what happens...I hope it's a DB dime!
