    It is mighty impressive all layed out like that... ain't it!
    I think of all of the Roman silvers found in the spring hunts, including all of the hoard silvers, yours is the prettiest one of all!! It's a beauty!! And the 2 Anna is a cutie! (Although the saw blade one is pretty cool too )
    Man you had a lot of buttons!! Pretty dang impressive hunt if ask me! Specially when you factor in you not feeling good and missing 2 days of hunting.
    Congrats again brother!!

    I still think you should put your name on the standbys list for Sept. 2019.

    Coins and relics and buttons oh my! Wonderful haul Jeff. Now you see the itch us New Englanders have for the really old stuff! Love the little India Vicky silver and the early Roman Coin. The nearly complete 1500s era buckle toward the top is also a great find.
