Got out with Todd today,we drove up to meet John a 17 yr old new cellar hole detectorist who just loves history.He does re-enactments as a Hessian soldier.real good kid and he invited us up.his uncle has 2 cellar holes on private property.picked him up at 7 am and we were off! buttons were my finds for the day.todd had the best day,john got 6 buttons and did well with his whites classic SL.next time up i'm gonna let him try my back up XLT.see if he likes it. Very rare to meet someone so young that has a passion for history like we do.
all my buttons had no back marks.a real old site for sure.
some nice designed large coat buttons,a few tombacs and a couple designed pewter buttons.one button still has green wool and the white string still trapped under the smashed shank.
was an enjoyable hunt but Todd stole the show today.
