Stumbled on a new site and had a great hunt!

[RSdetecting]

Hope everyone is well! I wanted to share the finds from a short hunt at a new site on Sunday. Complete buckle, Connecticut copper and 1782 half reale. Does anyone know how old the buckle might be?

Can't help you with the buckle, but a big congrats on the Half Reale and copper. Well done.

I love the reale ! (but hate the Connecticut copper )

 

[cellrdwellr]

Excellent digs! I would say the buckle would date to right around the date range of the coins found, colonial era. Congrats!

By stumbled you mean researched, and bushwhacked I’m sure. Great job

Wow!! Huge congrats! Stumbling on small early settler sites is probably the best feeling one can have in this hobby!

Very nice finds!

But naturally, being from California, you were referring to the reale. RIGHT ?

That was a great hunt. Congrats
Looking at my buckle book ones that look close to yours are 1720s to 1790s

Wow! Nice old site. I would have to go back time after time.

If that was a short hunt I think you need to stumble your way back and get some more of those amazing finds. Congrats!
