Just returned from my annual LC hunt with my Dad and uncle. this site has been wonderful to us and I have deemed it my "field of Dreams" as I have personally dug some 400 buttons out of this general area-early 1700's through CW.
Two more fantastic buttons came out of the site this time around as I dug my first SC navy (1802-1808) double headed eagle style. As most are, it is in not-so great shape but I'll take it.
Next great find was the script A that I could tell was gilted-the BM however is what is so good as it is a rare, S & K (rivet'd and soldered). The Prussian firm Schnitzler & Kirshbaum. I can only find reference to them on CS staffs and it is the rarest bm of those and can find nothing for them on other CS buttons-if any body knows different let me know.
Also managed the usual flat buttons, IH, a nice 1860 fatty, a post war SC staff, eagle gs cuff and several other period relics and my dad dug a beautiful, Eagle I coat loaded with gilt.
thanks for looking.
