New site produces some nice military buttons & more!

[Darby]

Had a great hunt today with my buddy jdsly. Hit a new site that proved to be a good one. Found the SC and A Artillery button on a quick recon trip. Then the silver gilt SC button and gold gilt "fancy" button (both pics after cleaning with aluminum jelly). Dug a small eagle cuff button, several flats and numerous other relics. Found a couple pipe stems and part of a bowl. The hook looking thing I'm not sure about but maybe a sword hanger(?). A few other pieces I have no idea on either so anyone recognize anything please let me know. Also found on the surface what looks like two, maybe ivory, buttons. Had a fun hunt today and jdsly found some nice military buttons too he'll post later. Thanks for looking and HH!

Thanks Cru! By the way, really enjoy your posts! I get excited digging 18 & 19th century relics and then see your BC finds...usually just wow! Thanks for the input.

Thanks Casper, Steve, Gwdigger,OutdoorAdv and trapperart. Appreciate your comments!

I agree, Trezurhunter they do deserve their own display! Thanks for the reply.

Thanks Rick. They did come out the ground in great shape! Actually I like the way the SC button turned out with the silver still on it but it really looked just as good if not better right out the dirt! Thanks for your comments.
