Hi everyone,

Again, since I didn't have a chance to share it on Treasurenet. Just wanted to share with you my recent Revolutionary War, War of 1812 buttons finds. Found a few great sites around Montreal and hunted them until the last good signal (but sure will try again). Most of those found are flat ones or not in great a shape so I'll show only the the best preserved military ones. Some of those sites also produced lots of musket balls, a few cannon balls and some other militaria.

Thanks again for the comments.

Excellent buttons, I hope to see more!

Outstanding button recoveries, congratulations! :notworthy:
 

Those are incredible :headbang:
 

Love those numbered buttons.
 

Metal elephants are very rare to find.
 

AWESOME BUTTONS WOW!
 

Nice buttons. What is the elephant button, and the eagle with a shield button? Is that a R in the shield for Rifleman?
I was able to hunt a british 1812 era site a few times. Ended up with a couple fouled anchor Royal navy buttons and a Royal Sappers and miners button.
My buddy pulled a couple of those artillery's like u posted. I always wanted one of those.
 

Killer 24th!


Here's my officer one from two years ago. One of my best.

All buttons are from British regiments except for the eagle one. I'm not a big connoisseur of buttons to say the truth. Perhaps Iron Patch can help as he's the one who helped me ID their time period.
