Thanks, Relic! Can't wait to receive our button book (couldn't find a cheap Tice one) so we can try to identify them! ~L&J

Thanks, Crusader. We do have this 1775 Grand Army button, but we sure would like to find a mate for it! ~L&J

Don't hope for the same, hope for something different! Often times it just seems like a numbers game so if you guys can keep digging them you very well might see another great early military button pop out. The condition of pewter is excellent so chances are it would be a real winner all the way around.

Agreed.
In fact your pewters are way above average. Only seen better when found under water & mud.
