Went out Tuesday in the bad weather to button hill. Ended up getting 14 button including a beautiful open faced colonial button. First of that kind for me. Brings my total button count from here to 261. Can I reach 300 before the year is over??? Thanks for looking!

Matt - here are a few openwork buttons I've stumbled across in my digs. These are some of my favorite buttons to find.

That one on the top right is amazing. They are all awesome though!
 

Great finds! That is one great location there. Good luck on the 300!!
 

Those are so ornate....would most of these beauties have adorned a woman's attire?
 

Wow! great buttons.. I love to find the buttons.. I think you have more than one colonial for sure. a couple may be Tombacs too. Very interesting, sounds like a great hill. HH
 

I love finding colonial buttons, I espesially love looking for various designs. My record is eight colonial era buttons in one day, so you got me beat on an average day lol. I love those buttons, keep em coming!

Coinman123,

The most in one day for me from this site is 55 buttons.
 

HMMMMM! you must have found a chinease laundry site and if a button fell off they just threw it out the window or a brothel. just sayin thats more buttons than a army could lose. HH

I agree. I don't think it was camps. We've nearly hit 500 buttons.
 

I mean that would explain the coins as well. Mostly cents and half cents. Equivalent to our 1 and $2 bills :-)
