I love your little horse shoe. I have a mule shoe the same size. I think about how cute that little mule must have been so many years ago.

It is hard to see how really small this shoe is....it must be a donkey I think...

Those old inn's are like digging for Christmas gifts. I'd love to be young and dig ant my families inn on Long Island. It to was a revolutionary war / culpers spy area. " Hallock's Inn". Wished you could have found a army button. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas

I do find one next outing coming up Friday...it is only a cuff button though. This site has been carpet bombed by detectorists though....the owner lets everyone on there.

Hey Todd that one thing with the split in it is either a brake leaver or clutch leaver from a tractor a either a rod or cable with a ball on it hooks in the slit to pull it. you have some nice finds for sure .

I think the shell frags are actually parts of iron wagon hub the thin brass wagon hub might be a worn bushing but i think wagons had wood bushings

@gordonreynolds4599 7 ай бұрын

That patch knife might be a Skinners knife for skinning hides for tanning and processing into leather. Just a guess.

Todd, Scott's description of the patch knife is probably correct. It also looks somewhat like a striker that is used by brick masons to strike a line in the mortar after a brick has been laid. This makes a decorative line design between the bricks. I am not familiar with a patch knife, so I would put my money on Scott's identification more than mine.

Thanks Tom! Not digging iron would have missed that one....and its historical too I think.

How can You tell a civil war round ball from a revolutionary war round ball or war of 1812 or french and Indian war

@AppalachianHistoryDetectives 6 ай бұрын

Well....technically you can't unless you measure the Caliber. These pioneers used old Muskets early in the CW but at this site much found is related to the Civil War activity. This ball was a .69 Cal....the only thing that large not from the CW is a Brown and Bess from early colonial.....good questions.

@markzimmerman7279 6 ай бұрын

@@AppalachianHistoryDetectives the french muskets we're identical in caliber to American

@AppalachianHistoryDetectives 6 ай бұрын

definitely possible. There is a lot of French and Indian over here. The French Indian muskets were the most common during that time and lead was hard to come by during that time so many Indians would cut their bullets into smaller caliber which made them unpredictable when fired and inacurrate. We typically find the French lead balls further west over near the Cacapon River and points west where the forts were located. Happy Holidays@@markzimmerman7279
