So I decided to go back and do a second dive. About 20 minutes in I got a huge hit. There it was another plate! I found the buttons within a few feet. Then on the way back to the boat launch a beauty 1818 penny. I can't wait to go back!

Great job... Can't wait to see that buckle cleaned up guy.

Thanks for sharing...
 
That is just outstanding...you are so fortunate to have such access to a site like this...makes me want to get an underwater detector!
 
CanDiver,
congratulations on some awesome finds. Actually, your eagle militia button is an outstanding find. It is not one listed in the general reference books. It is not every day you see a button not in the books. and it is in gem like condition to boot. I would actually nominate the button separately as banner. I specialize in buttons and this is one I do not recall seeing before. Congrats! and good luck!
 
Deja vu ! Did you find a glory hole or what !!!! Looks like you may be going for three...so far! Congrats!
 
Another great dive! I'm curious what you junk to good target ratio is?
 
Man you are killin it! Congratulations again, I love seeing this type of stuff! :icon_thumleft:

Great finds! You're actually finding history at that site. Your buttons are in amazing condition. Way to go!
 
Think you could save some plates for the rest of us?
