A bucket lister

[DetectorMoe]

Went digging few days ago, 2-12-20, and pop out a bucket lister..



Bucket lister is this Block "A" button. No markings on the back so a local button.


A very long spoon handle.


One flat button,


Flatin thimble and a toe tap.


And I wanna say this is lever for locking down a window?

Nice Block A. A lot of the "locals" have rusted out tin backs (including the one I found), so to have an intact back with a shank like that is a nice bonus.

That A is very confusing to me. It is obvious from a glance that it is a HT & B Manchester A, imported from England for the Confederates. The only thing is I have never seen or even heard of a HT & B button with a blank back. The button doesn't match any Confederate local buttons. If possible, I would contact William Leigh and get his insight on this button.

Very nice button there. Looks like a great keeper that will probably clean up really nicely!
