Hunted with 4 friends at a spot that I’ve never been to. The location has been pounded over the years many times. I dialed the deus up to 25khz using the big coil since I figured most machines that had been there were running lower frequencies. It paid off. I got one real clean signal in the final minutes of the short hunt at this location. I was pretty sure I had a CW button when I seen the eagle.... apparently it’s an officers cuff button. I only have about 6 CW buttons with this being my 2nd confederate. It’s not shanked and I see no backmark. Anybody know what the value would be. Not that I would ever part with it. 5DBD341C-E8B6-42B1-AA9B-9A4DA298E594.png BD76FF03-3280-481E-8FDD-6E41C25076A3.jpeg

Thanks you. He is a good guy and super knowledgeable.
I posted it on my Facebook group last night: NC History Diggers and plan to put it on Old North State Detectorist Club’s Facebook page tonight.
