got up to a few new cellar holes sites with sniffy.digging was still a bit rough in some areas.
I got a few nice buttons,a old carriage name plate and a broken bridle rosette.that D-buckle locked on quarter at 4 inches and had my heart pumpin! :crying02: sniffy got the find of the day a nice 1883 seated dime.
2010 large copper count>>O :crying02:
I just want to thank Krom & snowy for the beautiful framed metal detectorists prayer they sent.below is a pic of it in my entertainment center.

What a great button. They started with a regular Tombac and only cut out the edge pie crust shape. Then they dotted the rim. An easy way to make a 3D button and get a couple more pennies for it. First relief button I've ever seen. You've found a lot of Indians (king of Indians :angelic:), but I think you specialty is finding the most unusual buttons around :yes:

really? you never seen one like this either? hmmmm.and i was thinking you were the king of the unusual buttons.I can't take that title from you.you dig way more and you dig far more unusual buttons than i do G.so you may maintain your button man status for now ;)
