Hot, Humid Hunt... 3 buttons and a GW cuff button

[creade]

Hot, Humid Hunt.....George Washington Cuff Button...Only 3-5 exist!!!

Got out for a couple of hours before I had to quit. Covered in bug spray, sweating, eyes burning, shirt soaked. Got a tombac







A plain pewter button, pretty big. This took 25 minutes to dig out from under an 4 inch root







Some type of designed button. Its a 2-piece type, the back is obviously metal ,
All caked up with rust







And what I believe is a 1789-97 GWI 19
George Washington cuff button. It looks like a exact match from what I see from georgewashingtoninauguralbuttons.com








I could be wrong but it seems to match up under my loop.

Awesome find. Congrats! Definitely deserves to be on the banner. The cuff links are so much rarer than most of the GW buttons. Hopefully that pewter button you found turns out to be a rare one as well. Show us a close up pic of that one too if you get a chance.

Here's a pic of the other one



People are seeing all different things but I believe its a banner in the middle with smaller banners on both sides

So still haven't heard back but have a update. The GW website changed the description. It's no longer a GW. It's now a Massachusetts sword in hand cuff link 1776-84. It depicts a patriot with a sword,sitting on a cannon. 6-10 known to exist. Still a cool button. If you go to the website ,you can see a clearer button.
