Assuming thats black left on the 'full' gilt artillery button, you could clean that up nice with lemon juice, it will look brand new! CONGRATS on them all.

All of your finds make want to pay more attention to the signals falling in the button range, What were the numbers shown on your machine?

I think you should. Most of the buttons fall into 50's-70's range (same as some aluminum items) on the Deus. The larger and copper ones or are in the 80's-90's like the coins.

Cool finds, first cufflink I see found here, think it would have shown in the 80-88 on my Delta. Thanks Aureus for showing the rest of your finds, can't wait to see your next posts.

Given the number of early military buttons dug you've certainly landed on a special site with significant coastal occupation. Killer digs
