Not sure if belt, shoe, backpack or horse tack button. Dug within close proximity of early 19th century tavern. Also found some pottery pieces and thick amber glass shards

Can you tell what the coin next to it is ?
nice going also
 
1991 quarter i found in driveway of the house.

I did find this out where the original house was located ( about 30 yds from where the house is now )
Same area i found 1836 Matron and 1773 Virginia half pence.
The coin is one on far right.
Dug about 9" down to retrieve.
Good soil but constant spraying of fields back in the day really messes with the copper

Neat coins. Many of the British halfpennies that made it over here were badly worn and thin before they were shipped over to the colonies but there were also counterfeits, many of which were thin too.
