I hunted the same site today that Wayfas4u found the 4 Real coin at yesterday. My first good find was a 1903 Indian Head penny, followed by the W W Co keyhole cover. Then I found the P.O.D cuff or vest button with a "Fecheimer Bros & Co" backmark. As I continued along I saw something sticking up out of the ground just before my coil passed over it. I leaned down for a closer look and saw a 3 piece button with "Florida" on it. I thought I had my second Confederate button until I got home and found the " M C Lilley & Co. Columbus O" backmark dated to no earlier than 1876! Oh well, at least I got out and played in the dirt for a couple hours.
When I picked the button up and handed it to my friend it fell apart. But, all the pieces are there including most of the paper insert. I may put it back together or leave just like it is now.
