nugget108 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Hello all, The boys and I were able to make it out today to a spot down the road from where we have been hunting. We checked it out a little bit last time and decided to go ahead and give it a go today. For some reason i have been on a button kick. I found some really ornate buttons this trip also and i also found my first eagle button. And it was an Infantry button. My little guy found a cool pendant slash pin, which is kinda rough and he snagged another Chinese coin and some other neat stuff. My oldest son finally beat me on the coins this trip. He found a really sweet 1861 UK half penny. He was pretty happy with that one. Other than the Chinese coins we always find, this is his first foreign coin. That makes 3 from this area. And of course we found the usual stuff, suspender buckles, round balls that have not been clipped yet straight from the mold and some other neat stuff. It was a beautiful day in the low 70s with a nice breeze. Take care everyone and stay safe out there! 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilaoro Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Great finds ! especially that "I" button . If I found a place that had the possibility of finding them it would be hard to quit and go home! In years past I searched a lot of the Civil War battle sites and only found 2 small and 2 large . I know that there are collectors that have large numbers of even new never lost ones but I would consider it priceless. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nugget108 Posted June 1, 2020 Author Share Posted June 1, 2020 Thanks guys. There is more there for sure. We will hit it again next weekend hopefully. Getting close to night hunting season if it starts heating up too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
