🥇 BANNER Multiple GW Inaugural Buttons...Heraldic Eagle 6-point Estoile variety

[Scrappy]

I stopped a a location on my way down to Virginia. Sure glad I stopped at a spot a friend recommended. I dug these four buttons from a pounded field, all within 10' of one another. When I say there were no high signals in this place I mean none...pounded to death. Also there was fill everywhere besides on fertile strip between the two fill spots. All the finds came from there. These buttons showed up as 12-20/21/22, all of them. The other finds for the day was a big ol to bad button, a musketball, and some small buckles.

I posted them earlier on another post and found out they were GW's. Here were all of my finds.

The heraldic eagle with 6 point estoile and square punch border is the variety. The best part is they all have their shanks.

for comparison

I'm over the moon. I texted Ahab, Bill D, and Vino and all confirm. Wow.
Thanks SwingBeepDig for the spot. I owe you buddy!

Sorry for the not so good pics. I'm on the road in a hotel room in Virginia.

Enjoy!

Here's the best I can do for pics.

Thx? I was wondering if they would pass the IP scrutiny. One is bend outward so maybe...

I'm rejoicing with you on your finds.I pulled out a huge amount of revolutionary relics and coins from there.The low tones targets was for a rainy day but I'm super glad you got some cool buttons from there.The place is huge and I have permission from the owner of the house that washington stayed.

Thanks Gary. They're all GWs after some more scrutiny of the squared edges. Four is crazy!

Vino you still welcome to go there. That's just the beginning of what's to come out of there.

There was nothing to cherry pick! My buddy is a very skilled detectorist and all the while I was hunting, I was impressed

Once again, just awesome man. Got to love those surprise IDs. Glad they didn't get thrown in a pile with your other flat buttons. I'm voting again on this thread to be sure it counts. Can't believe there were 4.

Thanks for the banner nod, again! That star I noticed right away and I've been thinking about it since I found it. It kept it from the flat button jar!
