Had two great days of hunting two new small fields. Special thanks to, Bramblefind on the steamship ID of the baggage tag. Citizens Union Line. The tag is an early Robbins of Boston, the rectangular hole was the early versions of these tags. The 16 star 20MM early Navy button has no back mark, very happy to see this one at the end of the hunt, beautiful. Another 1723 Woods Hibernia. That makes my third Woods, great history reading up on these coins. 1797 Draped Bust. 1822 Large cent. 1784 reale and a 1845 seated half dime. The blowhole button is the nicest I have dug to date.

Killer finds!

The steamship baggage tag is choice, and the condition of that button is as good as they get from the ground.
 
DANG THERE FACTS, NICE BUNCH OF FINDS.
