I knew this site had some coppers somewhere... I was getting tired of digging silver and 1600s buckles :lol:
JUST KIDDING :grin:
I thought maybe I also had an 1877 IH while still in the field, but it turned out to be 1879.
Also,
1888 IH
1917 Merc
I forget the wheat date
The lamp turner patent date is Jan 7th 1879
I guess the holed copper is a KG as the CONN or CONNEC isn't apparent as they usually are. I think they may have tried to hole it twice...probably should have, as it would have stayed on their neck :lol:
Thanks for looking!
PS I love finding buttons with cloth on them, sometimes the color is still there!
