I didn't get any silver or gold but I got some keepers. The buffalo was a nice surprise in the condition it's in and the National Encampment souvenir really made my day. I got an navy looking button but it's got an iron back. I couldn't believe the condition of the coins at this place, I wish they were all like that.

I'm not really sure Anne but I think it's got something to do with Veterans of the Civil war.

Thanks Giant. That's what I figured but wasn't sure. Neat relic!

Nice finds. I love finding G.A.R. relics. I'll bet that encampment was at philly because the badge looks like the top part of the liberty bell.
