    Made a good find today. Texas Navy button, and an old buckle.

    Thought I would give it a try to see if I could come up with another button. To my supprise I found this Texas Navy Button. I wish I could get the picture to come out clearer. Hope your enjoy.

    Added a couple of more pictures of the button. Maybe its a little clearer.

    The Texas Navy button date is 1837 to 1838. I have found six Navy buttons, one Texas Marine Corp., and one Republic of Texas Army Staff button. Its a real thrill to find such. They are not for sale.....
