Its been very hot and dry, but I'm tired of waiting for the cool weather to get here and had to itch my Fisher addiction so off I went. The ground was harder than diggin in February!! I can't believe I even said that, but it is true. This was my first signal of the day and not my last but the best.So I'm a sharin kind of guy and here she is not bad lookin for 145 years old. Some plating is still visible but the shank is missing and probably why he lost it. From what I have seen at other links the button can be had for $865.00 in excellent condition, but this example is a far cry from that.
Thanks for lookin and wish everyone out there the same kind of luck. You know where I will be bright and early

Super Rare Find-Good Going! In Tennessee, you need a jack hammer to dig since we are 16+ inches behind in rainfall. That button will have a cherished place in your collection I"m sure.
