Antietam Recovery = 18 pc.'s /My First (intact) Eagle!!!!!!

Some of you might think I have plenty of these.....Wrong! This is my first full Eagle Button from the Great Battle.I think I scared Ty when I yelled,he was so close he dropped his detector :D I have found bit's and piece's but not a full intact Eagle,took me 2 yr.'s and right now I'm drinking a chilly one for everyone.Here's the find's for the day....Don't be afraid of Briar's!!This will most likely take me a couple post's to show you the pic's so enjoy and HH!!Thank's for Eyeballin'

Would somebody please come over here and peel Civilman1 off the ceiling :laughing11: :laughing11: :laughing11: He's on cloud nine with this find... :D :D Good job honey.. :hello2: :wav:.you've outdone yourself this time. And yes.....I did hear that you found an eagle button....you've only said it a million times :D :wink: :-* and I'm sure I'll hear it a million more and you'll probably be mumbling it in your sleep. Definitely putting in the ear plugs when I go to bed, LOL....
 

Re: Antietam Recovery = 18 pc.'s /My First (intact) Eagle!!!!!!

Re: Antietam Recovery = 18 pc.'s /My First (intact) Eagle!!!!!!

Civil,
I'm toasting right now to you & your first full eagle button. :tongue3: Congrats to you big guy!
What does that back mark say? I can see "Extra", but what else?
Nice group of lead there too. :thumbsup:
I got a very neat Eagle button too today, that I will post tomorrow. (too tired tonight :'( )
It is a scrawny looking eagle on top of a cannon. I'm going to try to find it in my button books.
That is a great spot you are hitting.
Way to go,
MM

Thank's BB...I'm still pumped Brother.....saw three mature (10+beard's) tom's on the way home :)
 

Re: Antietam Recovery = 18 pc.'s /My First (intact) Eagle!!!!!!

You had a good day. Nice button. Soon the buttons in fields will be badly deteriorated by acid rain and fertilizer. Congrats.

Thanks MM....finally got him off the ceiling.. :D..feet still not touching the floor....walking on air, LOL.. Maybe his feet will touch the floor tomorrow when you post.. ???...probably not, but wishful thinking, LOL

And Civil...would you please take down all the "I found a Eagle Button" - Post-it's on the walls, mirrors and countertops in the house.....and I don't think Shorty (the dog) likes that note you taped on her tail...guess you're looking for outside advertisement. :D :D :D :-*
 

Re: Antietam Recovery = 18 pc.'s /My First (intact) Eagle!!!!!!

Hey Doug...The "back say's Extra Guilt" but the Eagle I can't read the back as of yet.I was hoping you could get a littlt more off the Eagle than what I have pictured,Try and an up-date the "mark's" later when I can see it better.I would have been happy with the Back from the other Button.Hurry up and post your's Buddy.Thank's
