First CS Script C button

[Hutch911]

Been about 3 weeks since I got out to dig but found some time today and paid off. The button is not in good of shape but I will take it. Also found a few bullets not bad for 5 hours.. Happy digging!

Hutch,your being a lil bit to critical of your button find... I think it looks fine! I'm pretty sure buckleboy has a how to clean buttons in the cleaning forum here on Tnet...

Nothing wrong with that find. Looks to be very straight and clean. Be happy with it and proud - it's certainly one of the rarer(sp?) Confederate buttons. Congrats!

Nice!!! what did you put on the buttons to bring out the detail?

The two with the holes in them came from a Privy so, they were in real bad shape (coated in a blue green corrosion). I cleaned them over several weeks in peroxide and olive oil baths (alternating) and picked the gunk off with a tooth pick. The Clean Script I came out of the ground looking just like that. A little rinse and it was ready to show. I coat all my buttons in petroleum jelly to stem further corrosion and to keep moisture out.
