That looks like a great find ! I'm sure a colonial relic veteran will chime in with info - can't be very many of those out there ( could be a one off !)

I agree .. a BANNER find in deed!

As a descendant of John Adams and John Q. Adams, I must say that I am a tad bit envious of that is a fantastic find! Congratulations!

Dude you killed it today with that find. I have not seen another John Adams cuff/button dug. You have a special find there my friend and you have another field of dreams you're working on. :occasion14:
