Before heading out to the DIV hunt last Thurs I took my friend Evan to one of my pounded sites. We didn't did much in the way of quantity, but coming down the home stretch heading to the truck we got into a little mini hotspot. I hit a couple of musketballs first, then Evan comes up with this awesome early navy button which is likely late 1700s or early 1800s British. A short time before that in another part of the field I dug a large coat sized early 1800s navy with full gilt identical to 2 others I've dug in this part of the county. I also found a nice gilted flower-type button of the same period along with an 1864 IH in good shape. So all-in-all it was a successful hunt and we both came home some nice keepers.
