Old buttons and a copper

[pa-dirt_nc-sand]

Got out on a couple local quickie hunts before the snow storm this weekend.
Best signal...

Beat up the ground digging every decent signal from 8-16 on the Nox, tombac buttons, pewter button and a lead button.


Some of the other stuff.



Good luck out there!

That's a nice assortment of finds. I like recovering buttons.

pa-dirt You’re quicky hunts would be a great day for me!!! What was in that first picture in that hunk of mud. Unbelievable how many buttons you get I have just started wanting to find the button more than a silver coin. I’m not worthy

Thx Truth. The first pic is a farm field toasty Matron LC. I like to hunt sites that have very little modern trash, so no pull tabs, foil or bottle caps. Makes it fun to dig those mid tones, except for the shotgun headstamps...

I'm happy to be digging buttons like that because sooner or later you're going to get a nice military button or pre Civil War coin.

Healthy haul Thad.

Yeah the weather put a damper on hunting this weekend.

Hope to get back out this weekend if it stays mild.
