We went out a couple days last week, first to our favorite park which has given up many nice things, though lately she has been stingy. Doug, Malachi, Diane and I hit it for about 4 hours, and out of that time only one keeper but it was a dandy! Doug joined the 1700's club with a 1767 One Reale! I went out on Tuesday by myself and did about 5 hours in fields, not much, only coin a crusted wheat cent but another field gave up 3 more CW era buttons. A large General Service, a smaller Infantry and a Patriotic button.

Huge congrats to Doug on the 1767 One Real! That's a jaw-dropping find for sure!

I really like your buttons too, especially the Union patriotic one.

The Spanish silver may be worn, but it is still Spanish silver. It doesn't pop out of the ground that often. :clapping:Congrats on the military buttons too. Some nice finds.
