Return to Silver Fields: War of 1812 2nd Regiment of Rifles & Artillery Buttons

Went back out to the "Silver Fields" to let Jeff dig some Silver as its been a couple months for him

I decided I'd let him dig the Silver today and I would set the detector

to "Quality Button" mode and try to locate something for the Button case. I was able to come up with a couple beauties while Jeff also was able to end his Spanish drought

with a couple silvers so all and all it was a very good day for both of us. Have a look:

Look at that 1812 Artillery shine

That's a beauty!! A few dozen Rev. War & CSA buttons and The J-Team , " military button collection" , may soon become the finest ever dug , in the USA ! Congrats Josh :thumbsup:

Sentinel, those are some absolutely incredible finds! :notworthy:

The cleaning job that you did was fantastic, love the look of the gilding that was left, just beautiful! :icon_thumright:

I'm going to vote BANNER for the War of 1812 U.S. Artillery Coat Button

Congratulations once again,
Dave

Great buttons :icon_thumright:

I especially like the regiment one. I believe they are the best you can get in the button area.
How d'you clean them?
