My girl friend Lynne dug a nice pre cw eagle "D" button.i got a 1850's merchant token.a one piece diplomatic eagle button,a few coppers and buttons.the applied silver on the colonial knee buckle completely came off the face of the buckle while cleaning it.I super glued it back on.Also wrote a story in this month's American Digger magazine about the WWII bombers ID bracelet I returned to the son of the veteran.

Hey man -- nice finds as usual! Good to see you post again. And they didn't put you in the new book?? :dontknow:
 

I would like to have a day like that. Amazing finds, I love the merchants token.
 

Nice a ton of great relic finds! Congrats!

When it comes to choosing between detecting or posting, we'd all go for detecting! As long as you get it posted at some point so we can all enjoy it, it's all good!
 

Super hunt with amazing finds, I really like the Dragoons button! Don't see them too often. Sub 8-)
 

Wow, nice! Keep finding stuff like this and you'll be able to open you're own American History museum :thumbsup:
 

was wondering where ya where!, and you came back with a vengeance!

great stuff there, love the buttons, buckles and coppers!!!
 

Amazing site and spectacular finds. :notworthy: I love that trade token and those old coppers.
 

Attaboy Dave!! That's quite a impressive accumulation of relics and coins. Love that token, and it reminds me of a similar clothier's token I dug last season. And both are from the same period. And that's a cool diplomatic button too. You rarely see those show up, and yours looks like a scarce variety as well. Super nice swingin'!!
 

Super stuff Dave! Always interesting to see your finds and videos. Looking forward to reading that entire article. Great job once again on returning the ID bracelet to the owners family. :thumbsup: That's great to see.
 

Great looking selection of finds, the merchant token is really in crisp condition.
 

Wow; what we wouldn't give to work an area like yours!!!!!!! Awesome digs. Love the token!:occasion14:
 

THIS IS A TNET SPECIAL REPORT! A FELLA NAMED NUT POSTED SOME FINDS THAT HE HAS DUG UP. A DIPLOMATIC BUTTON AND PEWTER SPOON , TOKEN AND OX KNOB AND THIMBLE TO. WHAT A HISTORICAL COLLECTION , GOT TO LOVE THE COLONIAL RELICS.
 

Great finds. Great article, I read it about a week ago. Thanks for sharing

Great group of finds Dave. That's a sweet Dragoon button. Love the merchant token and the matching knee buckles. Some nice colonial buttons in there and what looks like a rosette with the chain link rim. You didn't mention it in your post or show the back, but I assume it's a rosette, and a nice one at that.
