yesterdays hunt, G.W. button "up date"

I got to get out yesterday for a couple hours with my mom. We found several buttons and I got my first whole buckle but have not cleaned it yet I'm afraid the middle will fall apart but I will try later. I found a neat button with George Washington on the front near ware I found my 1774 half reale last year. No coins this time unless you count a 1918 wheat. HH!!

Thats a pretty neat button, looks like a great day.
 
Re: yesterdays hunt, G.W. button

I got my buckle a little cleaner but not much I guess I will leave as is.

Saw the GW cufflink/button in the "what is it" section. I'm very intrigued, as I've never seen one like that posted before. Don't know much about it's worth, but my banner vote is in. VERY cool!
 
Re: yesterdays hunt, G.W. button

I have never seen one of these buttons before either. Any button with age and G.W. on it is BANNER material in my book !! I am curious to learn more....

That is a heck of a button, I'll be staying tuned for a ID. And you got my vote! :icon_thumright:

Like I said that button I think is a banner find. I have only seen a few posted, and were on relic forums, and everyone liked em a lot!

The buckle is early and great too! If left as is, which I think probably has to be the case, it should be sealed or the iron will really rot the frame.

Cool button. Keep us informed if you identify it for sure.

I'm pretty sure it's part of a patriotic type cufflink. Not quite in the same league as the Inaugural buttons, but still a great one to add to a dug collection!
 
Re: yesterdays hunt, G.W. button

Great Find, my vote is in.
 
Re: yesterdays hunt, G.W. button

Great Washington Button! I found a button exactly like the bottom pic you posted a few weeks back. Mine is about the size of a quarter, maybe slightly larger. How large is your button?
 
Re: yesterdays hunt, G.W. button

WoW :o
That Is Neat :headbang: :headbang:
 
Re: yesterdays hunt, G.W. button

Nice job on the button!
 
Re: yesterdays hunt, G.W. button

Some nice early stuff. Love the GW

I agree . Cufflink.
 
Re: yesterdays hunt, G.W. button

Thats a nice buckle also... Hit that site hard...................... :coffee2:
 
Re: yesterdays hunt, G.W. button

My buddy, Steve in PA, found one in the early 90s at a Colonial site. I have only seen a few posted over the years. Many would agree that it is rarer than the typical GW inaugural button!

Well done, collector, on a great find!!!

Kyle
