If I'm not mistaken Jim you should have a pretty descent Button collection going by now. Sure would like to see it some time.

Wha?!? No big sky?!? No big talk?!? No Jimtana pictures?!?

It looks like you had a productive hunt, Jimmers. Pretty good for just the scouting mission for the rest of your detecting season. 8)

The brooch is unique. The matchsafe is great. Those square nails are Sup-er Sex-ee!!
