Early navy button dug yesterday

[SC Keith]

Got out yesterday to scout a new site that showed up on an old map. The usual signs of small brick and ceramic were there so i was hopeful of some goodies. This early 1800s navy button was my best find.

I think so but I am not sure. There seems to be many varieties over a long period.

Wow that is a gorgeous button. What a beautiful patina. Congrats. One of the nicer ones I've ever seen

Very nice combination... green and gold! That one probably goes back to the 1700s, but doesn't really make much difference.

Man I keep coming back and looking at this thing. They just can't come out much nicer looking than that. Hope if I ever found an early military it comes out like that
