Me & Todd Hiltz had a great day detecting 3 cellar holes .Todd killed it in the copper dept & I was blessed to get my 12th George Washington Inaugural button.. I think it's a CT copper? A musket ball,a complete wooden barrell tap & a couple buttons.The ticks were horrible but great weather and an awesome day to be out in the woods saving history.Anyone good at dating bullets too?

You guys... :dontknow:

From watching Todd's videos I know the two of you work your azzes off for everything you find. Congrats on finding a DOZEN GWs-incredible! :occasion14:
 
Very nice buddy! Congrats on number 12. I like you have draped bust silver way at the top of my list. I hope you get yours soon and it's a stunner. You certainly put yourself in the right spots
 
That's crazy, big congrats.
 
I may be old---but that's not patina---I'm just green with ENVYGeorge would be grateful:icon_thumleft::icon_thumleft::icon_thumright::icon_thumright:.
 
Congrats on number 12 Dave. The spacing of those holes makes me think they made it into a whizzer.
 
Nice digs buddy and good to see you're getting out. I think an even dozen means a nice display? That is, if you don't have one already.

That's a real cool button, and not just because it's a GW. It's cool factor is way up there because it's personalized. Someone was so proud of our country that they holed it after the shank fell off.
thanks,I took a couple new photo's for you

Looks like you 2 had a great day. :icon_thumright: Do you think you can leave a few of those GW buttons in the ground for other to dig :dontknow: Just kidding, :tongue3: that's an amazing button even if it is your 12th.
