🥇 BANNER George Washington inaugural button!!!!!!!

[flyinryan2]

I got out after work before the snow started and got two good finds today. Ok one of them is an amazing find! The first find is my first .54 caliber Starr bullet, union or confederate? The next good target and my last find of the day was this big dandy button! I've been hunting this trashy back yard for two years now and thought for sure all the good targets are gone. I was totally wrong. After I dug it I saw it was just another dandy button and almost put it in the pouch without any further investigation but for some reason I ran the front of the button across my bibs to see an eagle and shield! I quickly posted a pic on Facebook and got my question answered within 30 seconds by a lot of people! Thanks James! I'm still shaking after this find. I hope the rest of the year continues this way. Thank you! And HH!

Thank you for sharing an important piece of history with us Ryan! You have caused me to shuffle my "most wanted" list a bit. Luckily I live in New England and anything is possible. As you've proven
