First complete Union CW button

[gheenoe78]

Greetings all. Dug my first complete federal GS button this weekend at an old faithful site that is usually hit or miss down here in South Carolina. It has a Waterbury backmark and the shank is fully intact. This is my first military button of 2016 and my first complete union civil war button. Happy hunting!

Nice button! Congrats. I remember my first Eagle button like it was yesterday. Hands were shaking so bad I couldn't hold on to it. [emoji106]

congratulations! don't care how many of those I find, it's a thrill that's tough to describe to people that don't dig in the dirt like we do!

I agree, digging those never gets old and very happy for you to find your first. I still remember my first as well and my jaw just dropped and I sat there stunned. Definitely not your first nice military button though I see from your avatar. That's awesome too. There's nothing like this hobby eh? Love it
