Re: Numbered Military Buttons - Let's see em!
I like those early French finds but unfortunately all our sites predate those buttons. Our group of three has only found two that I can think of, one unit having fought in the Rev War so it makes some sense to be here, but the other was a Marine Artillery so no explanation on it. It's too bad that earlier Marines buttons were not marked because I've found about 100. Still happy with them though.

Re: Numbered Military Buttons - Let's see em!
I have a few more, but if my pewter was that good I've have quite a few more. If only you could dig that many Rev buttons and in that condition!

Re: Mines
Nice ones. I seen the image titles before the pictures opened and expected some numbered buttons from France... then I see a Kings 8th! You must be doing your digs in QC.
PS... I have the same pewter 60th but not near as nice.
