Hello from C.Bowser in Oregon. First time I have joined any online group!

[C.Bowser]

I sure am glad I found you folks before LXXII found me! My eclectic pursuits are not conducive to collections but I am particularly enamored by all things that exceed me in age. Mama took out the pockets of my pinafore when I was eight because she was tired of them ripping out from weight of old bullets, nails, buttons...and anything else rusty and/or unique. That innate curiosity has not lessened with time. The joy of discovery keeps me young, and my living space is cluttered with tools and buttons to identify, coins to investigate, a saddle to research, books to date and catalog, etc., etc., My tombstone, already ordered, says, "Never Bored."

For my 70th birthday I got myself a White's Treasure Hunter Pro and am anxious to try it out here on my little acreage; "The Middle Age Spread."

My first call for help to all you well versed people, is to get some help on a metal button that I purchased with a bunch a number of years ago. Not in "the book." I have pictures but have no idea how to go about showing it to the followers on TreasureNet. You will want to see it; I think it is a real military(?) puzzler!

Are those dancing emoji guys to my right for me to use? I don't know what tags or threads are. Is this a post, a thread, or just a wordy something? "Parse" words in list? I definitely am not with it on internet jargon. I NEED HELP!
Thanks!

Welcome to TNet from Nick in CT!
Can't wait to see your button once you figure out how to post photos. After some trial and error you should get the hang of it!

C.Bowser-- You are MOST welcome here, you will find that this is what I believe to be the best detecting site anywhere. It's something I seem to go to every morning just to "catch up" with what's new. Enjoy. By the way, saw your button, don't know what it is, but it's a Dandy.
