My 1st month detecting...could it be a authentic George Washington button!?!?

[Branden]

Sorry the photos kinda suck best I could do with my camera. What do you guys think I have here? I think it was bent and my shovel caught the bend and opened it back up. It seems to be made out of brass the design doesn't show on the back. I'm totally stoked right now I literally got my detector 2 weeks ago, have found a ton of clad, a cool old copper cameo, and this baby!

Looks really good research its the only way to b for sure on paper, hopefully it is

 

[Orvin]

I tend to agree with Branden and like Christo000 said research is the only way to be sure.... great find..!!

 

[RobRieman]

If they didn't make any fakes I would say your dead on!

 

[Iron Patch]

It's real, no dug modern fake is going to look like that.

 

[christo000]

Id still just to be sure ya it does look real but hey nothing worse then goin a period of time with out knowing for sure, I do however hope it is for ya

 

[Branden]

I tend to think it is the real deal, I'm currently searching for someone in my area that can take a look at it and verify authenticity. I just hope this doesn't spoil me, to find something like this as a rookie it is gonna be hard for me to top this!
