Got a r5v number 5 rev war pewter button. Only way to see 5 is to get it wet at a angle. Sadly the flying eagle cent is not much better. You can only see wing tips at a angle. I did not think it was possible to find a uglier one then the one I got in the spring. 2 different spots. Also dug a bunch of copper and brass scrap. Only took me 18 years to get my 1st rev war button. :laughing7:

Cool finds.
Those flying eagles are not easy to come by. They just didn't make them for long.
