Another nice eagle button, Wanna "C" it?

I got out for a couple hours Sunday morning and got 2 sharps 2 .58 3 ringers and a nice eagle C over coat button. You all know what sharps and 3 ringers looks like so I'll just post pics of the button. The backmark is D Evans Attleboro Mass for those who don't know the type of eagle on that button is only found on Evan's made buttons.

Thanks guys
Deepdigger First I soaked it in water for about 15 minutes, while I did some other stuff. I brushed it with a soft toothbrush, rinsed it off then soaked it in a 50/50 mix of lemon juice and water. It took about 15 or 20 minutes to clean it. After I took it out of the lemon jiuce mix I brushed it a soft tooth brush and rinsed it off really well.

Nice calvary button. That cleaned up very nice. I have never tried that method on my buttons but may give it a try on the next one. I also like your before and after pictures. Congrats on a great find.

...then I bet you added some whipped cream and put a cherry on top! I hope my first of the year comes out like that!

That's a beauty VY. You won't find many in Tennessee that look that good. I dug an Eagle cuff this morning and it's rough because of fertilizer use in a field. Did you find that beauty in the woods? Great dig buddy.

Thanks all. If I hadn't dug it and was going by the pics. I would have thought it was dug in a big oak woods. Surprisingly it was dug in old pines and cedars. Most of the buttons dug there come out in pretty bad shape. One day I dug 4 eagle buttons there and the faces of 3 crumbled apart as soon as I got them out of the ground. The last NY button I dug there crumbled apart too.
