Got out with Todd back up to the site we went last weekend where he dug his eagle plate and I got my silvered shoe buckle.usually when i dig a horse shoe I end up having a good day.
3 Indian head pennies 1860,1864 & 1901.a 1867 2 cent piece. a nice old (bat wing style) buckle.
a smashed flat Sword Scabbard band with the ring and my 10th 1789 George Washington memorable era variety button.a shame it's pretty toasted :girlcry: i left what black crud was still stuck on it otherewise i'd be lookin at a plain old colonial coat button.I gave it a shot of hairspray so least the black date will stay on. oh well that's the way it goes.
Todd did just as well in the finds dept with one item being a gem :thumbsup01: unlike mine.

I doubt that Dave , you would of branched out at some point. some guys will never even find one of them in the lifetime detecting , its a phenomenal achievement of buttons my friend :notworthy:

just wished it was a little bit better condition is all and that you'd leave me a few to find :rofl::rofl:

when you created the album it should of taken you to another page , on that page where you album name was just to the right of it should of been an "upload photos" title to click at the moment its very dark lettered and kinda hard to see

Wish the GW was in better shape Dave but still a great find. Mine seems to be in much better condition probably because it was on the slope of the hill

Todd found one too? :shocked04:
The greatest day ever was when you found four at one site, then another at a separate site. Mind blowing. Hey Dave...what's your record for coppers in a day?
