I hit two different sites with a friend today and got one good find from both. The first site produced an 1880 H Canada 5 cent piece and the second site gave me a general service eagle cuff button with no backmark. The Canada coin is a first and, while the eagle button might seem fairly common to many here it is very uncommon for my part of the world. I am in south west Georgia. I straightened the coin out with one tap from my hammer!

Not meager at all. Eagle buttons are not common in many places. Nice find.

Fishy's are hard to find...especially way down where you are! Very cool!

Thanks for all the replies guys. I only call them meager because of what I see everyone else post here. This part of the country only goes back to the early 1800s.

No backmark on the Eagle button?
