Greetings Friends.
I have been pounding some old field sites and a couple of new ones and found a few keepers.
The Infantry button is 21MM and backmarked Schuyler H&G Co..
My best CW button for sure. One site has been loaded with buttons, Must have been a busy place. Thanks for looking and best luck to all.

Excellent coins and nice pile of relics, Merf! :thumbsup:

Porcelain boot is probably off a china doll, right?

Nice finds! That 2 Ore is Swedish... mush have been brought over from the old country. I'd be looking into the history of that property just out of curiosity to see if the homesteaders were from Sweden.

Thanks At1-----The owners name was William Flint in 1871, I also found a Spanish 2 real at that site last year. Must have been some foreign currency used back in those days.

Thanks Kyle-- :thumbsup:--That LC came out of the ground in good shape.
I tumbled it for 1/2 hour and put a little vaseline on it.
It is one of the best I have found.
