🥇 BANNER Pewter USA Buttons

[G.A.P.metal]

I found two pewter USA buttons today in a field near 1/4 mile from the Indian village of Catherine`s Town wiped out by Gen. Sullivan in 1779, i think these buttons are period.
I also found a dropped three ringer,we don`t see many of these this far north .
Found a lot of beer cans and iron too.

We've got Rev War buttons serving as bookends on the banner, but I'll have to admit yours has a little better optics than the snake and stars. Nice going on that pair of gorgeous artifacts!

Thanks Bill
I have watched you show some of the best relics/artifacts that i have ever seen...thank you for that !

hey Abe
Ya i pretty excited and pewter drunk !
Both buttons were 10"-12" down and crappy signals the T2 is a very good machine.
Gary

congratulations! I was going to ask you what you used to find them, but I saw where you used your T2. I agree I found some good uns' with the T2 and it gets real deep and they don't always sound good.

Congrats on the USA buttons...In my books all Rev War buttons should be on top...maybe I'm biased

Hi Prof
I would like to meet you too !
I have only found 3 three ringers in 46 years so they are rare for me anyhow.
Lead is all-way present in the fields i hunt,pounds of round balls,and modern bullets,but the three ringers are elusive to me.
I know of some big camps up Seneca Lake... Hand`s Brigade camped just north of Watkins
A prisoner of the Seneca...a Luke Sweat told of a cave near Lodi N.y. that he was kept in....you know of any cave up that way ?

OMGoodness look at those buttons. Wonderful pieces of history. Congratulations. Now I have to ask...Was my stand there holding your detector up when you found the buttons? That would almost make it seem like I was there when you found them. Once again congrats on finding those buttons.
