Found this one in my newest colonial farm field permission. Apparently these are a fairly common find on old sites in LatinAmerica and Europe but Ive never seen a similar one of them found in the states so a special find for me Ecce Homo=behold the man and mater salvatoris= our saviors mother

Congrats on the cool find! What's it made out of?
Thanks. i assume copper or brass. It had to be in the ground for a long time to get that dark patina

Nice find Toasted. Definitely don't see many Catholic colonial artifact finds.
Thanks. Catholics made up less than 1% of the population in 1790
