If I knew today would turn out how it did, I would have gotten started earlier!

Silvers061216.jpg

Five silvers. Pretty worn, but been awhile since I've amassed that many in a day.

TCNF061216.jpg TCNB061216.jpg

Three cent nickel. Good to see one of these each year. Means you're digging the iffy signals.

Buttons061216.jpg Clasp061216.jpg

Couple of buttons and I don't know what but it is gold plated. Ornate clasp to boot.

GiltButton061216.jpg GiltButtonB061216.jpg

Not sure about the gilt button. Military? I'll let the button experts chime in. Hard to make out the back-mark. I think I see Scoville.

Criers061216.jpg

Couple of criers. Semi-key dates. Seen better days.

Don't you wish all days could be that way? Which begs the question of would we appreciate them if they were?

Joking aside, that's a most excellent day. Nice seated silver. Congrats

Are you kidding me?!?!?!
I'm still looking for my firsts in all those categories, with the exception of the wheats............
You had one heck of a day..........it's a scary thought that you could have started earlier!!!!!

GREAT finds! Your button is upside down. I think it's an "S V" on there, for "Sons of Veterans," which was a late 1800s fraternal organization for children of Civil War vets.Cheers,Buck
