Where to begin? I wasn't going to get out today. Thank God I did! My buddy and I got into a new permission and in the back of their property they cleared a big section of brush and trees. So we started out back. We found some decent stuff nothing crazy. Then I found a large cent, my buddy found a King George 1st copper. About 2 minutes after he dug the KG1 I dug a button. At first I though it was British. It looks like a crown in the middle. Then I saw rattlesnakes and counted 13 dots on top.

I didn't want to get too excited but when I got home and busted out Don Trioni's book Insignia of Independence. I was anxiously turning the pages until I got to the rattlesnake button section. Damn I just dug the best button I've found to date!! A Revolutionary War rattlesnake button!! Bucket lister!

That is an awesome button. Congrats on sweet find. What book is that pic of the buttons from? I have over 70 buttons ive found this past year and havent a clue about them. One of them actually looks like the one with the stars on it.

Don Trioni's Insignia of Independence. There's also Albert's button book...
