Epic quick hunt. Spanish Silver and a Haitian King's Regiment Phoenix Ball Button

[BrianNY]

Had a "Real" great 2 hour outing!!! If I only had a nickel for every time that happened(I got a nickel next). So here goes, a 1809 1/2 Real, a plow bent 1830 5 cent that would otherwise be in phenomenal condition, and a few buttons. Didn't think much of the ball button till I got home. I clean it up a bit and see some lettering through the loupe. Clean a little more and see enough letters to Google it. Turns out it says "JE RENAIS DE MES CENDRES No 1" with a Phoenix in the center. This is a semi rare Kings Regiment button that was designed for the Hatian King around 1809. Also found a Patriot button with the words In God We Trust with a Bible in the middle. These were apparently made during Andrew Jackson's presidency Pretty stellar hunt!!

Congrats on some nice oldies. Would like to find a capped bust coin and would not care if it was bent.

Hope you get one some day soon. Yeah even though it's bent, it gives it character.

I have never seen a coin bent by a plow especially a coin that small . A love token is what I would think...
