and todays hunt with Frank...
we hit a few holes that we pounded before.not much in the finds dept but squeaked out a few keepers.
the iron fork still has wood on handle,a pewter spoon bowl,2 suspender buckles,a D-type buckle,a small flat button
my fave is the large designed colonial dandy or cloak button.

I've seen the centers like that, but usually much smaller of a center dot. That one seems to want to incorporate it into the main design...pretty cool. And tell me there wasn't even a worm, beetle or flea to photograph :thinkingabout: I think you just had carpal trigger syndrome rofl

nope no bugs or nothing.whoa wait a small salamander but i passed.
the raised dot in the middle has a recess going around the dot.like the edges go under the main part of the button.you can see the braze mark on back like it was 2 pieces braised together to give it a 3-D appearence
