You go right ahead my friend...
My My, what has occurred in a few short hours?!???? Having read through all the replies to this amazing thread I am flabbergasted at the significance of that little brass GEM you plucked from the earth! Once again the T-net CREW comes through with the positive ID and substantiates this truly incredible and extremely RARE find of EPIC proportions. :icon_salut: Well done Creskol mate! :icon_thumright:

Now as far as our beloved calabash digger is concerned with his "downward" detecting career upon the apprehension of this epic John Adams gem cufflink recovery, NAH! I believe this find will only validate what we already know here on T-net, that you my friend CD are a tried and true honest to goodness treasure hunter with a pedigree supported by your consistently cool historic finds. I am so pleased to know a wonderful guy, who I truly enjoy to witness in the posts and videos, has captured such a rare relic. Stay humble mate. We wouldn't want this to go to your head! LOL!:laughing9: Ya'll don't mind me living vicariously through you and this amazing recovery do ya'? "HEY, I know this guy called calabash digger! He found the COOLEST little brass cuff link EVER! YEAH, John Adams and only 10 known to EXIST!!!" WOO HOO!!!:thumbsup::icon_salut:

No not gonna part with it, did think about it for a second to buy my wife something .... Not because we need the money but because she knows how much it means to me and I wanted her to know she means more to me... but she said no don't sell it. So I will just buy her something special and keep my button ,I mean its a win win! BTW I'm still stoked about the button!
Congrats on a super find. That sure made banner fast but well deserving. Gotta ask - you going to sell it? I can't believe what the potential value of that little booger is!
