My first "Dandy" Button!
Nothing special, with 5 more buttons from the "button field" today. I have now found 24 buttons at the site, along with the 1809 Half Cent (http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,151437.0.html). This one appears to be a "Dandy" button, which were popular in the 1790's, if I remember correctly. All 24 of the buttons were found in a small area inside a huge field which has only yielded the one coin. The field is remarkably free of trash; the only targets being buttons. I also picked up as many ticks so this may be my last trip there until the late fall.
