I guess that it is time for me to resurrect this thread. I never thought that the day would come....... I found G.W. #2!

This one was found in Orange County, VT. October of 2012.
As found pics and after restoration pics.

Awesome thread ! I love GW buttons and the History they represent ! I found this one a number of years back while detecting with a buddy. A plow nicked it a couple of times but no doubt one of my top finds. Its a Unity Prosperity and Independence GW button circa 1789. When discovered there were 4 known to exist.. I guess this one became number 5. Sad to say I had to let it go during tough times. I really regret it now. Hope I get the chance and luck to dig another one. I hope the pic works. First time posting in a long while. Enjoy and HH !
