Yesterday I found a republican blues button with an Ives Kendrick backmark. It really is in great shape with the shank intact. An Austrian “ein Kreuzer” (apparently all of them are dated 1816), and an 1850s clothing token that had me thinking I dug a gold eagle for a second 🤣. Here are some other finds from the past few weeks to go along with it.

There has been over 300 flat buttons pulled from this site

Some things are or are not photographed

Also from this site are two 1/2 reales and a 1 reale
One piece eagle A
2 piece eagle R
Staff officers eagle
A navy diplomat that will be possibly published in an upcoming button book
A coin silver handle
A coin silver spoon handle
1851 large cent, 1819 large cent
My first shield nickel
Two KG II’s
And this was also my first arrowhead I’ve found!

So you know your reales, I’m trying to study up on all this new stuff I’m finding...it’s a lot to digest. Those ones are scarce?
No. Those half reals are not scarce at all and worth less than $20. I found all these in Bedford, Somerset, and Westmoreland counties, plus one in Washington county and two in Culpeper, VA. Plus 6 since the picture was taken.

The coins and buttons are definitely rare but that point could be 10,000 year old. You do not go back much further in the USA. Maybe 5,000 more years if super lucky.
Amy way you look at it it was a most excellent hunt on many levels.
