DANDY BUTTON? AND A SILVER FIRST

[SWINGER1969]

Went out yesterday and had a few good finds first this 1906 barber dime my FIRST! .
Then this Dandy type button i"m not a button guy so i"m looking for ID help. Is this called a flat button? And an approx year or at least century was at a 1800 farm site. Looks to be a hallmark under shank?

I use this link to help date buttons. Perhaps it is the 1785-1800 one? https://www.detecting.us/dating-and...s/dating-buttons-by-shank-style-and-material/

Great Finds Swing! It's always exciting to find some of that Old Engravers work. What a Man that Charles E. Barber.
