Rev War Button and oldest coin ever

[DetectorMoe]

Well, I went back to the colonial site where I found the cut silver reale last hunt and this time I didn't think I can top that but,. I pop out my oldest coin with a full date and a revolutionary button..



37th revolutionary war British button.. Its hard to see the 3, I did a highlight and you can see it,. and here is a image of the closes photo I can find online..




1749 King George II farthing, When I first dug it up, I wasn't sure what I had, I thought it was a KGII half penny. And its my oldest coin with full date.




Iron key.


Shoe buckle part.


Everything and the trash.

Nice Rev War button!

Nice finds again but that Pistareen is probably 1720s

That's a good find. The vast majority of 37th enlisted soldier buttons that turn up are the other pattern which continued through 1812.

Thanks everyone, I'm still pretty happy with these finds.

The coin-relic combination always makes for a good feeling going home. I see it's not your first Rev War button seeing the NC. It looks very familiar so I must have seen it at the time and my memory is letting me down. Not a surprise!
