Hi everyone,

As promised I will post some of the finds from this week end's hunt that I haven't included in my Reales post:http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/today-s-finds/518448-3-spanish-reales-silver-rain.html


Here are some of them:

3 large and 1 small Royal Marines buttons (Rev War-War 1812)
1 Large officers Royal Navy button (War of 1812)
A 18 pounder cannon ball with a sprue mark
Piece of dragon's tail ship anchor
George II Britannia type halfpenny (1727-1760)
And a cool copper cufflink from the same period

Also from this week's hunt

3 Royal Artillery buttons (mid 1800's) One is a beauty!

As usual, thanks for the comments!

Assuming thats black left on the 'full' gilt artillery button, you could clean that up nice with lemon juice, it will look brand new! CONGRATS on them all.

I think you should. Most of the buttons fall into 50's-70's range (same as some aluminum items) on the Deus. The larger and copper ones or are in the 80's-90's like the coins.
