Here's some of my finds from the last month. I was out Monday detecting a colonial homestead that I spent a lot of time last winter. I switched to a sniper coil and worked my way around the house foundation and found quite a few more keepers. 1909 and 1919 wheat, a 39 Washington, some flat buttons, and a button that I thought was a block I at first sight. I got home and cleaned it up a bit only to reveal its a Nashville rail way button. Not what I thought but it's unique and in great shape. Anyone know anything about it? I also am looking for any info available about the spur. Bill Siesser was with me on a beautiful day last week when I found it. Thanks for looking. Ted

Love the button being from Nashville.
 
Very nice finds !! Congrats, the spur and the button are very cool !!
 
Nice officer's spur! I have dug pieces of one, but don't even have 1/3rd of the spur. Good work. I like the RWY button anyhow.
