I turned up this broken bronze/ brass artifact recently and its got me stumped. The two pieces were found a few days apart at the same location ( nearby to some still standing colonial buildings circa 1850 ).
The larger piece has CARPENTER PATENTED stamped on the front and on the reverse side I can make out 7. and theres some other illegable letters. A bit of googling turned up a E.W. Carpenter from Pennsylvania USA, who patented woodworking planes and other tools from the early 1820s.... could it be part of one of his devices ?
Any ideas peoples?
Also from the same location......
Needless to say, Im liking this spot.. :beer:
