Hi all, I am new here. this is my first post. Only been Detecting for a few months. Here are some of my recent finds.

The 64th Button was found in PA by my 15 yr old son at an old homesite built in 1861. ( Don't know how to tell if it is authentic but I think it is)
The twist Monkey wrench was found by me at the same home site.
The valve stem cover, strange button (any ideas let me know), the Ampule full of Yellow powder and Old fishing sinker was found in NJ near a river with history.
The RWB Award Ribbon was also found in NJ differnt location.

I’m the furthest thing from an expert but that 64th Button looks like the real deal. Maybe from the war of 1812 era?

That "64" button looks like it could hold some really good history. I don't know what it is but it looks old. Congrats!

I think that ampule of yellow powder is a very early match. The powder is sulfur and they used pliers to break them open. Very cool
