It's always possible that an artifact or coin could be from an older date than the inhabited property. Hunters could have dropped that piece of lead that might have been for a flintlock. I like to romanticize and imagine how the artifacts ended up where they were. Thank you for another great video.

I agree, a drift punch, or drift pin, is used as an aid in aligning bolt or rivet holes prior to inserting a fastener or in blacksmithing to enlarge a hole. A drift punch is constructed as a tapered rod, with the hammer acting on the large end of the taper .You slid the pin through two holes to align the holes, you might tap on the wider end with a hammer, but not so hard as to mushroom the top over as you would see with a chisel that's hit by a metal hammer (as Brad said).

Man that 1863 hard times token is deeply personal. My fourth great grandfather was captured at Vicksburg and paroled by Grant on July 3, 1863. He had been shot in the eye but survived till 1922. I’m glad, because he would not have had my third great grandfather… I would not be writing this. He kept his word to the Union and did not reenlist. This made him a deserter in the eyes of the Confederacy. He no doubt had some hard times in 1863. But glad they were had.

The shape of the punch is unmistakeable, but as you say, it has not been hit hard and often. Perhaps it was lost when still fairly new; but I think it could also have been used on a softer material, perhaps to punch holes in leather... And I completely agree about the cape-clasp, I remember them from my days in theatre. Greetings from the Pyrenees, Everything you do seems to be cut from the same cloth, woven of curiosity and care, and I admire it.

As for the possibility of the folded lead being a flint holder for a lock. The lock could have been a fire starter as well. Then again my Dad learn to shoot with a percussion rifle due to it was cheaper to shoot than a cartridge firearm. So maybe something similar might have been in play.

Hey Brad given you found a lot of horse tack related items in this video and in a past video I saw of yours where you found small pieces of chain my guess is that its a curb chain from a horses bit. They are not long length of chain and the connect to each side of the bit and run under the horses chin. I also watched another one of your videos where you are in a field and find pieces and again there was horse tack buckles etc.

Thinking out loud here but the "hook" may have had a flat spring to make it a "snap". These are used to close or attach the bridle, harness or collar of a draft horse. I also think the chain may be part of a curb chain used in conjunction with the bit.

I’m no flintlock rifle authority, but I’ve never seen reference to lead wrapped gun flints. Leather, felt, or gunpatch cloth, but no lead strips. Also, have you found a reference photo of a rifle with a lever shaped like that? The finger loop seems too narrow? Maybe shears would be more likely? Dunno. Cool video, as usual.
