Steve Andrews Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I found this great 1690-1720 period shoe buckle on the beach recently, using a modded Diving program. It's great for deep high conductors on the beach. I'm in Jersey, Channe Islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lodge Scent Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 WOW! What a beauty. The anaerobic muck on a beach or a bog is the only place you will find a 300 year old buckle in that remarkable condition. I can only dream of one ever coming out of my ground that nice. Great find.

ColonelDan Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Its truly amazing how clay and muck preserves certain artifacts. I dug this breast plate from an area of Second Seminole War activity (1837). It was buried in lake bottom muck for about 185 years. It was 12-14 inches down in that muck and came out looking just as you see in the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
