WOO HOO! another GEE DUB-A-YOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

got out with the ole Sniffster today.day started off rough,couldn't find a couple sites.back to drawing board we finally found one deep into the woods.if ya didn't know what to look for anyone could have easily walked right by this hole.barely room to swing but,near edge of old dirt road in front of cellar hole got a nice button type signal,dig down...cloaker cool! rub a lil and see the sunburst
no freakin way! my 3rd 1789 George Washington Inaugural Button! no shank but the detail is amazing i think for it's age and being in the ground all these years.
at this 1720 home i dug a flat button.most of gold gilt still intact both sides, a ring which seems to be some 1940's-50's tv show item(please chime in if anyone can identify it ) and a silver plated pewter mashed flat napkin ring? with the name ADIN engraved into it and decorative flowers going around it.
what a day!

I doubt it's soupy sales.this ring looks older than when he was popular.plus there's a letter "B" on his bow tie

If he had a pipe in his mouth I'd have to suggest it was a Bob Dobbs, Church of the Subgenius ring

 

[eckstar]

Nice finds, bud. Keep diggin

 

[{Sentinel}]

Man, you guys have a ton of GW buttons up that way, I'd love to find just one of those bad boys....but I gotta give you your props, Congrats on another Grand Slam G.W.!!

 

[Iron Patch]

That is a nice one! You're obviously in a hot area for them so I doubt it will be the last that pops up on one of your hunts. Gotta love the feeling of digging a killer button!


Sniff, I feel your pain. In the Fall Ironhorse dug a very rare local button pretty much right beside me. It's one we've been after for near as long as we've hunted together, and in our world of detecting it easy ranks up there with a GW. Not in value but neither it or a GW would be for sale anyway.... so I guess they would be worth the same. If you keep digging the time will come. There's definitely some super rare ones out there to find so even if it takes you 10 years to find one, the right one would definitely be worth the wait.
