🥇 BANNER Multiple GW Inaugural Buttons...Heraldic Eagle 6-point Estoile variety

[Scrappy]

I stopped a a location on my way down to Virginia. Sure glad I stopped at a spot a friend recommended. I dug these four buttons from a pounded field, all within 10' of one another. When I say there were no high signals in this place I mean none...pounded to death. Also there was fill everywhere besides on fertile strip between the two fill spots. All the finds came from there. These buttons showed up as 12-20/21/22, all of them. The other finds for the day was a big ol to bad button, a musketball, and some small buckles.

I posted them earlier on another post and found out they were GW's. Here were all of my finds.

The heraldic eagle with 6 point estoile and square punch border is the variety. The best part is they all have their shanks.

for comparison

I'm over the moon. I texted Ahab, Bill D, and Vino and all confirm. Wow.
Thanks SwingBeepDig for the spot. I owe you buddy!

Sorry for the not so good pics. I'm on the road in a hotel room in Virginia.

Enjoy!

Steve

Glad to see this finally made it to the top Steve, where it belongs. And just think, I actually got to hold those babies in my hand. That was great timing to find those on the way down to Ole Virginie. Maybe you should make that trip more often .

Haha, it was a good trip. I'm glad you got to see them as well and that I could bring something to show you. However, I believe you one-upped me about a thousand times that day with your collection! Lol.

I started out as a coin guy because they could be easily identified and dated. As I kept going, buttons and relics became equally nice, if not better. I personally think they're way more personal than a coin.

Wow very nice what a day congratulations

Thanks for that. It was a great day but I didn't realize it until I posted two days later and they were ID'd. Lol

 

[TNGUNS]
