Thread: Jacksonian Button

    Jacksonian Button

    The wet ground helped unhide a few more buttons. The consensus on the ship button is that it's a Jacksonian that lost its rim.







    Oldest find: 5,000 year old copper spearhead
    Oldest coin: 1699 William III halfpenny
    Purdiest coin: 1832 Capped Bust quarter
    Coolest find: USA button with blue threads still on shank
