Nothing spectacular but this is the third one I have found and the only one that wasn't crushed. Also found a nice little Merc too in great condition.

Thanks guys. Done with that property and onto the next. My husband's research pays off. So glad he has found what he loves to do doing his early retirement and we can MD together .

What I love about your button most is your location. With so much CW activity who knows what it may have seen in it's day before it was dropped. The mercury dime is very nice. The button however sets my imagination into overdrive and I like that. Congrats.

Those are really good finds Nancy. I love the button and it's in great shape to have been in the ground for 150 years. Congrats.

Great Finds

I love your Button.
&
I love finding them esp, in the condition yours is in.

'Rant Time'

You know those "common" Eagle Buttons Really are hard to find 'these Day's' at least here in N Ga, &
while they might not be worth much $ , each one of the few that I have dug are Priceless.

As there are not many left to be found and after 150 + years the ones that are still in good shape are even rarer IMO.
Each ones a Banner to me , Nice Dime as well. :thumbsup:.
