That's a nice button. If it was mixed in with coins then I'm sure the shank was missing before the tumble. Still from the same site that you stumbled on recently?

Yes , same site
Getting really picked over now and i expect them to plant it any day now
 

Did you know it was a button when you found it and accidentally ran it through the tumbler, or thought it was a coin? Either way, it's a very cool button!

It was so chunky and covered in hard dirt i wasn't sure. Planned on cleaning it by hand a little first to see what it was but it got mixed in with my clad by accident
 

wow that's an really nice surprise to have when you check your tumbled clad!!!
 

Nice, congrats! :occasion14:
 

That button would certainly be a favorite of mine if I found it. Very nice button. Congrats!
 

A Rifflemans button that is a great find. Ive also tumbled things before by accident but it looks like it cleaned it up nice for you. Well done
