Patience Rewarded with Rev War Button!!

[romeo-1]

I got back to a recently plowed site this morning for a couple hours and was rewarded for my last hunt here which yielded quantity over quality. Started off where I left off with lots of lead coming up and a couple older buttons...moved to another area and got a solid target and pulled out a musket ball. As I was pocketing the musket ball i re scanned and and got another target close to the surface. As soon as I saw it I knew it was military but without a number I couldn't immediately ID it. I sent a picture off to Iron Patch and he ID'd it as a Rev War Era 84th Regiment of Foot button!

Rev War and a new one for the button display...gotta like that!

I'm not exposed to nearly as many buttons as many, but that one I haven't seen and is awesome. Don't forget to preserve it. Enjoy and congrats!

As I type this I am in the process of preserving it with a white glue and water mixture...definitely one to take care of!
