🥇 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!

Looks great Scrappy. Really a nice find and what a surprise. Those are the best!
I am betting Sup was just yanking your chain wanting part of your finds. I would not separate the jacket.

Right! Listen you were able to get an I.D on them and that is all that matters. Old GW has been gone a long time. You saved some history there.

Very true. I'm a member of several historical societies in Northern NJ and showed one of them last night. The members were over the moon when they saw them. They looked like the saw a ghost! Lol. God Bless GW

I hope the long wait for these to go banner doesn't dampen your excitement at all. Should have gone to the top IMMEDIATELY after they were identified IMHO. You see one every once in awhile. But I have never seen anyone post that they had found two. And you doubled that in the same hunt. I guess I just don't understand the banner system very well. I keep hoping to have one of my mercury dimes get up there but it hasn't happened yet.

Congratulations on a very very deserved banner.
