Man it was a hot weekend most of my searching was done under the trees Saturday I ended up with a 1905 V nick and one wheat, Sunday was better my take for the day a dateless buff 1943 silver nick and a 1884 V missed a key date by one year, also a 1907 IH and a cool led toy Indian the best find of the day was a NY seal coat button in very nice condition that's my second one..

Very nice button. I'd put some aluminum jelly (not naval jelly) on it for a bit. It should really clean up very nicely! :thumbsup:
