First, GREAT FINDS!
Second, being fairly new to this, I could be wrong, but...
The button doesn't look very professional, the design and the circumference look off. The only buttons I have found from that era, are done the same way, they were once round, I'm pretty sure. Then they broke, maybe just a corner off, and someone, being smart and frugal, reshaped and reused it! It looks hand carved. Which to me, just makes it that much neater. WTG!

And I'm SO GLAD you found that 2 Reale in Maryland! Gives me hope..

Fantastic coin and button find!

Congrats on the 2 Reale. Those are a thrill to find, but I really like the cuff link with the crude hand etched design, and it's silver to boot. See if you can get the name off the back. That is definitely the find of the day!!

If that reale is about the size of a quarter then it is a 2 1/2 reale. Great find!

Great find! I live in MD, too. How frozen was the ground?
