Great button from new research

[cjon455]

So I sent nepawill the coordinates for my corn field and he started researching it for me and found out that my hotspot was a former cider mill. I pulled lots of coppers and buttons from that site over the past two years. we thought we found another property on the opposite end of the field so I gridded that for a while and it was radio silence. not a peep to be heard anywhere. I think the old map is off a little bit, anyhow I figured while I was there I would go back to my hotspot. I'm glad I did! Check out this cool flat button, the front has two birds on it and the back says "Turner Hammond and sons" even though I didn't find another site at the field I'm happy with today's two hour hunt! thanks for looking and HH!!
I also found a 1987 quarter which nearly gave me a heart attack, a modern bullet, and this older pocket knife

Congrats on both the finds, and finding out the history of the site. I really like being able to make the connection between the finds and why they were there.

Are those pheasants or grouses? I dug a powder flask a couple years ago with a similar looking bird motif, and it turned out they were grouses. Cool find either way!

If GAPmetal gives his approval, by golly she's a good one! I like it whether Gary approves or not though lol. You got yourself a good one for the display.

I believe Bill is right in saying they are probably grouse. They don't have a male pheasant's tail anyway.

thanks jc, I've been hitting thay field for 3 yrs and figured a homesite because of pottery, nails, red brick, and of course coins/buttons, the cider mill is surprising
