Beautiful Eagle A button and other colonial and civil war finds from Sunday

[calmerthanu]

Got out in the freezing cold on Sunday to an area thats new to be but has been hunted some by one other person in the past, they left quite a few things for me and I still have a lot of ground there to cover. The Eagle A is great and I love that patina on it, broken piece at bottom right of group photo looks like maybe some type of rosette, wish it was intact, only coin so far is a thick IH date is badly worn but think its 1864, ready to go back as soon as this rain gets outta here!!

Sooo cooool. I want to go somewhere to find a colonial item. I am so jealous. Just one button would be cool. Happy hunting.

A job well done, to me the eagle button look's better like that than if it were brand new [ if it's old , it should look old] also a great assortent of other relics I don't find too many Gardner's in my area only 3or4 and they were fired. Nice hunt. Davers
