Buttons and coins from the Flea Market this morning.

[VERMONTPACKRAT]

My wife and I hit a large, annual flea market this morning in Orford, NH. I wish I had $1,000,000,000 to spend.........
The advertised starting time for the sale was 9:00 AM. We were there at 7:30 and found some really nice stuff.

Any way here is what I came home with. The coins were $2 each The matching pair of cuff links are made from Seatd Liberty Quarters, the "P" is the first initial in my last name. I got him down to $50 and I had to have them The five small "floral" flat buttons and one larger "gilt" flat button were $1 each. The last group of buttons were $20. Any info on the two buttons in the closeups would be a help too.

How did I do.....

I love that old foreign silver! Nice buttons, too!

Nice finds.

I believe the button that looks like a bowl with flowers is actually a Military Flaming Bomb Button. Being a retired Ordnance Officer it was pretty easy to identify. Finding the age is an easy search.

You are exactly right I ended up posting these in the "What is it" section.

I would love to have the Irish Floran. What will you take for it?

It already went at auction. I got $4.55 for the coin, $2.00 shipping.

Not high finance, but 100% profit is alright with me
