Best Button ever and some other Cool Find's

Ty and I went out Sunday hoping to hookup with some CW find's at this one early 1850's site....No Go!!! The guy there said he had a brother up the road with a 1700's house that backed up to Antietam Creek not far from the battle......What a move that was!!!!! My third good hit and out popped this Very Sweet N.Y. coat button,my best "looking" button to date.I could have stopped there.Kept on and ended up with some Misc. dated find's......This guy doesn't know it yet but he has some new tenant's just about every weekend ;D Here are my find's:

N.Y Coat Button/Cheshire Mfg Co-Chesire
Smashed 3-ringer w/hole
Super Small Colonial Buckle??
Suspender Clip part
Old tag
1913 Buffalo
1909 Wheatie

The other CW item's came from Sharpsburg the weekend before:

My 12th Wash Arsenal
Percussion Cap
3-ringer and a chewed
Iron Belt Hook maybe???

Had a great time....and many more to come.....Thank's for looking!!!!

The Cheshire Manufacturing Company produced this rare varient, 23mm.
"*CHESHIRE MFG. CO. */ CHESHIRE." dm [depressed mark] is between two concentric rings of dots.


That is listed as a rare button!!!!!!!!!! :headbang:
