Finally decided not to be lazy for once and make a post on here. These are things I have dug recently and haven't posted on here :)

This is all from one spot, which is a bulldozed house in town that I've been hitting since August. It was believed to be built in the 1920's, and apparently had Civil War activity on there.

The coins include: Several Wheat cents, an Indian Head Cent from 1906, and the first silver of the year, a 1917 Mercury Dime.

The buttons include: A WWI-WWII button, still not exactly sure since it's my first. Then today, I found my very first Civil War button. A South Carolina State Button. :grin::grin: I was freaking out! The makers mark is "SCOVILL MFG. CO. WATERBURY." It was right next to a zinc penny I dug, and this signal was no different. I dug it because it was pretty shallow. DIG EVERYTHING.

HH!

WOW, Congrats on the great finds! You have a whole lot of history in that one spot, and I expect you will likely find a whole lot more. Congrats! :wow:

Great nab on the SC state button and silver #1 of the year. Definitely have to dig everything at a site like that.
