Post by our rules please, no insulting members. Eric, it doesn't matter when he posts, he posts when he posts. It is nice to have a story with picture and find, but it is not required.

You called them trolls. Not being rude goes both ways. I think they were just wanting some details of the hunt. You can do that without providing location. But it's certainly not a requirement to provide a backstory.

Nice find by the way. Was Arch with you when you found it?

I called them trolls after being questioned why it was also posted on facebook or questioned due to it being my first post, as if it was faked...... sorry but I throw it back man.... Im still confused on what kind of story people expect... u know where and what machine i found it with. what else can I tell without giving up location?

I would start it out really dramatic. It was a cold winter day winds out of the north at 9 mph here in nc. I walked swinging my machine to the right and then left . [emoji3516](Now you finish [emoji23])

Awesome dig there bud... I dug some Rev buttons but not this one yet. Everytime I'm at a colonial site, I am thinking about this button.. That should be a banner find... Congrats!!
