Neighborhood Button

MKW · Mar 24, 2020

Today, in a swamp that borders my neighborhood, I found what I believe is a South Carolina Civil War uniform button. Definitely my best find yet since I've only been detecting for about a month. I'm excited!

Very Sweet Save! I'm still hunting for my first button, Union or Confederate!

BLK Hole,Keep at it. They are out there, and you will find one....or two. It has been a while since I have found one myself. Being from Virginia, you should find one. Best of luck to you.

MKW, first off I'd like to Welcome you to the Tnet Forum from Georgia and secondly, "Semper Fi' Devil Dog". You are off to a great start. We have two things in common. The Corps, and our first Confetrit' button. Those South Carolina buttons are great looking, such as the one you found. I found my first Confetrit' button back in the 80's in Atlanta, A South Carolina cuff button. I wouldn't take anything for it. I love the state of South Carolina. I consider it my adoptive state. My Dad was born in Charleston in 1932 and I lived in Beaufort for 3 years while in the Corps 1976-1979. Welcome aboard, and Continued Success to you.

Thanks and Semper Fi! My wife and I are actually from Ga. We've been in SC for about 10 years. Moved here from Tifton, Ga. I like it here, but it will never be "home".
