With winter closing in and ground getting hard we did some woods hunting .
My hunting bud had a buffalo before i even set up my detector. My tector was acting strange so i went home
to get another .When i got back Doug says he got a Indian and wheat is same hole. I hit a wheaty.
He pulls a silver 5 cent Canadian .I'm gettin killed here. I get a good hit and up comes a button so i toss it in
my pouch and we move to another site. New site gave nothing as we were leaving i get one last good hit.
Out drops a 1834 Large. OK i can hold my head up now. Went home and washed off button . :hello2:

If that day was your last hunting day for this year, then you went out in a big way......great old button and old coin.
Can't beat that. BUT....hope you have a break in the weather, and get out some more...... :thumbsup:

Thanks to all for the comments. I might be able to squeeze in a hunt or two.
I found the button is a grove of pine tree so the frost will get there last.
It was a ballfield years ago all the coins there have been post 1900
