Lincoln in the center. On the right, 2nd one down is a button, and 18th century, one on the far left is probably an 18th century copper coin, worn out.

Nice finds Marc, congrats! Please keep us posted as the cleaning and ID progress!

Say jewelerguy, lighten up a bit with that ancient thing would Ya? I was nine when
they were first minted. I believe that was the same year the construction started
for Dulles Airport.

Best wishes all!
