War of 1812 Script "A" button, 1818 LC, NY coat button

:hello: Hi T-net, managed a 2 hour hunt today after work at a new site.. I knocked, owner said "sure go ahead" and I couldn't start swinging fast enough.. To my dismay, the detector was going nuts from interference, so I asked the guy if there was an underground power line or something ??? He said, "oh yeah that's the dog's shock collar line" :laughing9: :laughing9: Thankfully, he was kind enough to turn it off, so the digging began.. Somewhere in the meanwhile I cut into the line twice :laughing7: and had to help him splice it back together when I was finished.. I did manage to dig a couple nice things out of the yard though :thumbsup: Thanks for looking and HH Jeff

That 1812 button is a great example of an early Scovill button!
That sure is one heck of a purdy button there, I agree with Neil :headbang: :headbang:

Thanks Brian.. Like I said, you don't see too many of those 1812 buttons come out at the sites we dig... Its the mysterious gap ??? Seems like the stuff is colonial or CW :dontknow:
