Beautiful VA Button!!

[RockyDig]

Got out with my dad for a few hours Sunday night. We went back to the field where I just found the 2 GA buttons. This VA button was maybe 20-30 feet away from where they were dug. I can't believe how much gold is still on this button!!!! It has a Waterbury/Scovill Mfg Co. backmark and a stand up shank.

Thanks for looking and HH!!!!!

One of the best dug VA buttons I have seen in a long time! Great job.

That's a beaut Rocky. WTG.You must have gone solo or Todd would have found that one. That one has more gold gilt left than any dug VA example I remember seeing. HH, Quindy.

WTG on a nice button. Looks like you are in a decent spot. Years ago I dug a nice Horstmann VA at the corner of Cameron and Monmouth streets. My aunt used to live near that corner. I also got an 1812 1st Regt of Artillerist button and some one piece eagle I's. I think they've built on that corner now. It's been a while since I've been up that way.

Nice find Rocky....did Todd go with you guys this time?

P.S. Did you attend the past 2 DIV's with Dave Cooper? If so I think we've met

Nope, no Todd this time, I got out for a few hours before dark with my dad (his first time actually using a detector). I just met Todd during the past 2 DIV's, we carpooled together with Hutch. We hunted once together since but our schedules haven't matched up for a while. Hopefully that will change this summer.

Rocky, What a great button! You've had a great week of digging. Can't beleave three great buttons and three plates out of that pounded to death field in one week. Looks like a few more trips are needed
