Haven’t posted on here in a few years and figured I get back on! On a hunt 2 weeks ago I found this 1820’s Massachusetts Militia button as my first signal of the day and a beautiful 1780 Carlos III Half Reale as my last. Great permission!

That button is a killer! Congrats! I have a CW era one, but would love to find an oldie like that.

Thanks! I’ve been hoping to find a CW mass militia for awhile so that’s funny. The old ones are out there though! You’ll get one I’m sure

Both are great finds, and something most people will never see under their coils (except for you East coasters!) Congrats on a fine hunt!

Thank you! I’m definitely grateful to live in this area though the winters are no fun when you can’t dig lol
