Beautiful Old Flat Button!

[Pennsylvania Treasures]

Was wondering around an old 1806 home site when I walked by a big rock and found this beauty at only 5 inches deep! Probably My best Flat Button Yet! No design on the front but big design on the back! Research says this one dates 1790-1810!

Beautiful patina! I think I have one with that same wreath on it. I'm going to have to check and see. Congrats and HH, Dave.

Looks like you have a pretty good site, look forward to more keepers coming out of there. :cheesysmile:

What a wonderful button wow!

That is a real beauty! It's wonderful how the details are highlighted by the green patina. We just don't find old buttons like that here in Illinois.

:congrats:

Love the green patine interlaced with the brown corrosion. Makes it really stand out. Congrats.
