I dug this circular object near an old stone foundation a couple weeks ago. It is shaped like a plate or saucer, but is only about 1 1/2 inch in diameter. The metal reminds me of pewter, though it is not crumbling. It has the image of two slightly raised fish on it, which is driving my curiosity. I know this is a long shot and that many things we find are unidentifiable, but does anyone have a guess on what this is and its age? Other finds on this site include buttons and buckles from the late 1700s to early 1800s, as well as a few 20th century U.S. coins, shotgun shells, and other typical trash items. I don’t know why I am so curious about this unremarkable find, but any insights would be appreciated. Thanks.
