buttons!!!....plus tax

[ironhorse]

uhhhh make that tacks there seemed to be a few floating around our last site today

Me and Patch started the day at the site we left off at last week to catch a button or two, my first one out of the ground was a RSLA just like the one IP posted last week, I thought we were off to a decent start with that. The rest of the day didn't produce any other militaries, although a couple of designed buttons did show up including a honker of a dandy button that gave me a start when it first came out, it seemed more impressive seeing all the gilt under the dirt. Even though there were lots of buttons a couple of coppers came out including a chunked Hibernia halfpenny, some crusty green discs, and one that I'm not 100% on, it could be a Connecticut copper, but I believe it may also be a British auctori plebis token...I'll let the coin gurus fight it out.

all in all a good day for detecting, meaning we pretty much dug all day, except for a brief walk through a field near where one of our old sites was......looking forward to shagging some nice oldies on Patriots sites later this week, today was a good warm up!

Ahhh bastad throwing the head fake saying my stamped coin was find of the day. You'll pay for that one!... When Hunthicks digs the 8 reale in your footsteps

The gurus will want to see the other side! But it's going to be a CT! (Bust doesn't match the plebis)

as for the back, not much to go on, east coast toast if you ask me

could be Britannia? that's what made me think it was a Brit token

jeez!! I sure hope so....otherwise not much sense of getting out again, but if the buttons are all gone I'll just have to settle for a bag of coins

Hey, that'll work! But I'd be happy with just about anything you dig on a regular basis!
