Still drooling on the keyboard, Congratualtions! 
John Adams, patriot during the Revolution, member of Congress and representative of same to European leaders. first Vice President of the United States under Washington, 2nd President of the United States of America. His son John Quincy also became President. That piece probably dates late 1790's and is awesome. He died July 4, 1826 within hours of the death of his political rival, Thomas Jefferson.

Great find. Those kind of finds are what I look for and is the reason I love detecting. I could care less about finding modern jewelry or coins. I hunt the old place that are just fields now and woods. Congrats bud. I vote banner.

You could repost this on "What is it?" and get a ton of information. Or you could have
TheCannonballGuy
answer it. This guys seems to be spot on with the history of relics found.

My hunting partner found one at heritage auctions that sold a few years back and they have only handled 2 .. They say there are less than 10 known examples known to exist.. holy cow find of a life time!

I’m very happy for you, brother! It’s good to see someone who has given so much to the Deus community get some positive karma back their way! And the time of year couldn’t be more appropriate!
I suggest putting that in a safety deposit box if you already haven’t [emoji6]
