Looks like some pretty nice finds to me...

That buckle fragment is cool. Looks like it was a very ornate buckle.

Congrats on the haul !!!

When you coil is hot, it's how, and when it's not, it's not! Just a numbers game so something good will happen soon.

Don't worry, Jeff, you will be back on the Colonial train soon. We got out today for the first time in 2010 and it was a miserable one.

Thanks for the replies fellas, u'd think with all those buttons out in the fields that at least one old coin or military button would have found its way under my coil maybe next weekend

I ran into that last Fall... button after button after button and nothing good. My last 250 or so gave up far less then any other time I've dug that many. I think this is going to be the year of the military for us.

good job on all those buttons! Somethin will pop up soon

At least you got a good number of flat buttons. I wish I could have made it down. My daughter hit a pothole with her car and had to put in in the shop and I had to take to work and pick her up. I did get out for a bit and dug a roundball. Maybe next time.
