If you lemon juice that button it will come up like new. Nice guilt left on that one!
 

Great site, hope you find more. That guy was probably in big trouble for loosing that mouthpiece. Love the seated.

Phenomenal hunt. Great seated coin and relics, but the bugle mouthpiece is the pièce de résistance.

Im sure he was in trouble! I had a hard time getting to sleep last night, imagining where that mouthpiece had played....cavalry charge maybe?? :)
 

Congrats on your first seated and the other great finds!!

I cant pick which item I like best, so I guess I just have to say I like them all ! Those are some great relics, and congrats on your first Seated Coin.
 

That eagle button is awesome... looks 20 y0ears old. Very well done sir.

Congrats on the seated. I'm still looking for my first... pangs of jealousness
 

Great hunt, that dirty seated is a great pic. You have a great site you are doing, congrats!

I had just talked to my wife about my lack of seated coins the night before! I think maybe we will talk about my lack of large cents now. ;)
 

Now that is a nice hunt, congratulations! :occasion14:
 

Congrats on your first seated,
I love the way that button cleaned up.
The mouthpiece is an outstanding find.
 

What a great hunt, that's an excellent bunch of finds. You must be on a real hotspot because you got a bit of everything. Nice job cleaning that button!
 

You hit the jackpot for sure. Great button. Really cleans up great!
 

Holy smokes--amazing finds! I'm sure you can tell all of us T-Netters are excited for you... and some of us are even a bit jealous! ;-) Congrats. -Lisa & John
