    COLD CELLAR HOLE HUNT WITH SNIFFY

    got up to a few new cellar holes sites with sniffy.digging was still a bit rough in some areas.
    I got a few nice buttons,a old carriage name plate and a broken bridle rosette.that D-buckle locked on quarter at 4 inches and had my heart pumpin! sniffy got the find of the day a nice 1883 seated dime.
    2010 large copper count>>O
    I just want to thank Krom & snowy for the beautiful framed metal detectorists prayer they sent.below is a pic of it in my entertainment center.
    what awesome people! thank you again! thumbsup01

    looks like your having fun . feeling the cabin fever starting to break a little i'd say you had a very nice day especially for a January more buttons than i got yesterday . is the big ornate button a tombac Dave if so then stretcher: thats one of the nicest tombacs i've seen in a while . hey sometimes you got to take one for the team and let the partner find something once in a while to shut 'em up from right Coinnut ( i do hate it when George cries after a hunt ) lol rofl

    nice finds Dave , congrats man

    What a great button. They started with a regular Tombac and only cut out the edge pie crust shape. Then they dotted the rim. An easy way to make a 3D button and get a couple more pennies for it. First relief button I've ever seen. You've found a lot of Indians (king of Indians ), but I think you specialty is finding the most unusual buttons around

    really? you never seen one like this either? hmmmm.and i was thinking you were the king of the unusual buttons.I can't take that title from you.you dig way more and you dig far more unusual buttons than i do G.so you may maintain your button man status for now

    Wow Dave you got a couple of nice looking buttons.At least one of you guys saved the coin.
    For every relic that rots away........a piece of history is lost.
