Went to the place George and I went last week where I found the colonial shoe buckle. I was alone since they had to work. 20 minutes into the hunt I find the 1939 quarter. The kiss of death. Early decent find equals not much after. I concentrated on the area where I found the buckle and came up with the cufflink like button. Cool design on it. I must've dug 50 shotgun shells and bullet casings. At first site of the plated spoon it looked solid since I saw the end of it first. Then I saw the business end of it and knew no such luck. The other spoon says Med Dept USA. Well I got my exercise and had fun.

Your finds are great. That Washington button is the best!! You take awesome pictures too. You must have a nice camera. Congrats on a successful hunt.
Thanks Ed. The camera is just a Sony Cyber-shot 3.2 megapixel. I just crop out and paste as a new pic and sharpen one time in photoshop.
Take care, Mike

I am in agreement with the others on your cuff link. I think that attributing it as a Washington piece may be a bit wishful however.....
I just said mine looks alot like the ones on Ebay. You never know, Washington was here in NJ.

This is the other button I found yesterday. I saw a glimmer of gold on it so I did a quick electrolysis on it.
