Went out on Tuesday for a little bit. This might be my last hit on on this cellar,it's getting overgrown. Maybe one more time. I did drop a coin somewhere so that's disappointing,I'll have to go back just to look😁I got 4 buttons ,a 1857 flying eagle coin and a 1944 mercury dime. I couldn't even seen the profile of the eagle until I used my Andres pencils on it. The dandy button looked plain until I used the scraping tool on it and it has a C on it. Significant?? 2 of the other buttons have some neat designs on them. They both were plain before cleaning. It's pretty neat when you start cleaning and things just appear.

Never dug one of those. Great find!
 

Very Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 

Nice job to bad you cant bring a lawn mower there lol Always fun to discover finds when cleaning.Im still looking for one of those flying eagles good job and nice buttons. Hope you find the coin you lost.......Tommy
 

I guess I'm odd man out, but I sure love those buttons. Though if an eagle chose to fly my way, I'd be over the moon. It looks like there is a crescent on one of the buttons. Is that what you see, creade, on the third photo?
 

You did well, especially liking the Eagle. Congrats on some great finds and thanks for sharing.:occasion14:

The eagle was a bonus!! I honestly thought it was a fatty Indian. I love finding the decorative buttons. I would rather find those then a coin, unless the coin is a hard to find one. . I see that crescent on the button. Hopefully there's a little more I've missed. Thanks ‼️

Thanks !! It was pretty cool seeing it reveal itself!
 

Congrats on a great hunt,, hard to find Eagle and a pretty Mercury.
 

Those flying eagles are sure hard to find. Congrats on finding such an elusive coin.
 

Nice relic and old coin shooting! :occasion14:
