Hello everyone, after a heart attack & long recovery, I'm back. After all, you can't keep a good woman down! 🤣
Any way, I ventured back to my honey hole, my metal detector went crazy as there are so many nails. I decided to just sift every hand full of dirt in a screen I made & I'm quite happy I did. I was told the flat brass buttons are civil war era?
I realize the coins don't hold much value, but my excitement in finding them was priceless. 😍😍

Wow...your honey hole is sure producing a lot of tasty treats! That's a nice collection of finds. The seated dime is a winner, especially with the Carson City mint mark. Congrats and welcome back!
 

Congratulations on you own recovery, and the dirt recoveries.
Liking the buttons and topping it off with the silver.
 

Congratulations on recovering and getting out to enjoy.
Keep tectin, sifting, winning and thanks for sharing.
 

I would definitely continue sifting that area. Your buttons may predate the civil war era. I'll let the button professionals make that call. All nice finds.
