1830s/40s Silvered South Carolina Button!!! Finally!!! Other Goodies Too!

[mangum]

Knocked one off the bucket list yesterday! I've been hunting in SC almost 4 years & have yet to find a SC button. I'm very happy with this pretty 1830s/40s silver gilt vest size button (larger than cuff, smaller than coat)! I found a lot of other goodies too! I'll let the photos speak for themselves. HH!

Congrats Josh! That's a sweet SC button, and I know how you like buttons.

That is a really nice set of relics. I can not tell how big the round unidentified part is, but it might be an oil lamp part.

Good luck!
