Good finds no doubt, but suggesting a banner in the title, I find a bit arrogant, for that reason alone.....

Congrats on the martingale and Voltigeurs. I like the hardee pin as well, tough to find complete examples given how thin they are. All mine have been broken. Nice variety, looking forward to seeing what you guys get next time.

Arrogant I was simply saying hopefully banner worthy, a lot of folks do not know how nice a martingale is. Thanks for the comment though

Can you offer some clarification?

Are these "Republic of Texas" relics? Mexican-American war relics? Pre-CW but post-statehood drops? Civil War relics?

Nice finds, but they'd be better appreciated with more info.

Wow that's some amazing finds! Button to bullet ratio is pretty darn good. What's the buckle on far left of table looks like two piece with wreath missing. Can't wait to see what else you get from that awesome site! HH!

That's some great finds. Without being two specific, what part of Texas are you hunting? North Texas, East Texas Piney Woods, Gulf Coast, Hill Country, the Valley, West Texas, the Pan Handle? Hunting Texas covers a lot of ground.

Yeah, I'm ignorant also, those buttons look so sweet, most of those finds look very cool even to this Jersey boy (I'm still below the Mason Dixon Line)
i heard the Mason-Dixon Line is south of I-195 lol.

Congrats on those relics. Some real impressive stuff
