Hi friends,

Hope you all enjoyed the weekend. John and I metal detected for a couple of hours today, and found a few items. A gorgeous gold gilded flat button, nice musketball, an 1899 Indianhead penny, what looks like a shaving razor, and a cute buckle. We also found a bizarre piece of something, larger than a hand. Have no idea what it is. Oh, and look at those other two relics--us! The Dynamic Detecting Duo! Thanks for looking. Take care. —Lisa & John

What a beautiful button design. I imagine it was quite beautiful when new if it is that attractive now. Great job!

Thanks! We've found several gilded buttons and plan on displaying them in one case. That will be quite special! ~L&J

Haha, thanks, Nick! The nice thing about detecting together (we are brother and sister) is we don't bicker--headphones! Yup, this button might be the sweetest design yet. Thanks for looking. ~L&J
