Those are some high quality finds. That spot is going to produce some very nice finds. Maybe you could buy it and invite all of us?

Really nice buttons. I love the 1 piece eagle As. I found several on the Virginia peninsula. Yours are in excellent shape. Great finds.

I always think it's fun to think back before detecting & realise that you never would have seen yourself get excited at a good button. I never thought I would gain a deep appreciation for buttons, but it's happened.
1 Button can save a bad days detecting - FACT.:occasion14: ......and well lots of buttons.....

Congratulations CD!

That's an impressive set of finds. Those buttons are really sweet... I like the watch winder and buckles too.

Best of luck to you!
