So me and Treblehunter got out for a while today..I froze my little butt off..
But we had some fun..
Finds were hard to come by today..We have pounded this place for the last year..
But did manage a few...Take a look..

Also found this button with a cool looking family Crest on it..
Abe looked it up with IP assistance..
Looks as though Neil from west NJ..
Found the same one a few years back..
Hope he can chime in on this.
Thanks for looking
George

Man you must have a small museum at your house bud. You find more keepers than anybody I've ever seen. That livery button is an absolute beauty. I'm quite sure they are scarce in the States. Great stuff buddy
 

Nice finds, I like that half cent, very nice detail. I think in 1809 someone picked that up at the mint, walked down the street a couple blocks and dropped it.
Here is a link to your coin, 1,154,572 minted that year. Just for an example they minted 55,230,000 1917 Merc dimes.
