Congrats on some real nice finds. The 1812 Naval button is incredible.
 

What a fantastic button in unreal shape. My digging buddy found a cuff sized variant of your button (Not near as pretty shape) last year. Until then, I had never seen one. Great find, my friend!!

That's awesome Dave! Man do we need rain. Even the dirt in the woods is like concrete. Sure looking forward to the cooler temp's to see what else you guys find.
 

Great button Dave. Nice job cleaning it!
 

Love the button and silver adornment.

Great button and LC !! Nice finds, congrats!
 

Nice button! I found the cuff version down here in SC about a month ago, but it wasn't nearly in as good of shape. Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
