Got out with Dave Saturday and a very late start on Sunday. Nabbed me two Connecticut's and a King George II. Saturday we spent most of the morning scouting possible new sites and then finally settled in. Turned out to be a great day as I was lucky enough to save 5 coins. Sunday was more of a button day for me. We went back to a spot that has been pounded by us and other dectorist but I really worked the cellar hole lip most of the time pulling out close to 20 buttons from the iron infestation. The last picture has me baffled. Don't know what it could ne but it looks like they tried hammering it into something:dontknow:

great weekend Todd! had a blast.that hammered disc definitely rang up just like a copper with the VDI numbers.maybe it was coin and they beat the snot out of it!
 
Great bunch of stuff that you dug there Todd, I really like finding them old cufflinks and the coppers are really nice :thumbsup02:
 
Fantastic results for you as always, Todd! :clapping:

You ended up with 6 nice coppers and a ton of buttons! Love the old cufflinks too.

Do you think that flat hammered object is made out of silver?

Tony, it is not silver but probably brass and copper. Actually I found 3 coppers not 6. Thanks. Tony
 
You guys had a great hunt. I think you would get bored here in Illinois. We don't find anything that old here.
Great bunch of finds

I'll second that, complete cuff links are always fun to find and some of them are really interesting
