Sorry for the long post with lot so of pics but had to report this weeks finds. Last week three of us one of which was Btv digger who is also on this foram decided to go hit some of our standing permissions since door knocking is out of the question, we were hoping to squeeze out a couple of targets from fields that have been hit in the past we ended up having. Really good day with me ending up with my best condition seated dime to date and a bucket lister for me a vermont regiment button in really good condition. I also got an 1836 New York hard times token and two Indians and of course more buttons

No fast foreward a couple of days and me and one of the other buddies got to get out again and still had to hit some standing permissions, but one of them had a cellar hole that I knew had not been hit by us so we decided to hit that and then previously hit fields and luckily they all produced we both ended up with our first gw inaugural button and only feet apart in a farm field.
Unfortunately they were both bent and I do not know if there is a way of bending it back without ruining it, any suggestions would be appreciated. I also dug my oldest silver to date a 1726 one reals and another whipped two reales. I also got a stunning Tombac button, 1802 draped bust, a whipped Connecticut copper tons of buttons and a belt plate which any I’d would be appreciated

You guys had an incredible day! The Pistarene is such a great find and it's in really nice condition. The seated looks absolutely perfect and a GW found by two of you!? I haven't been around for too long but I've never heard of that happening! Huge congrats. That's tough that the button is folded like that. I think an expert could fix it but at the same time I think there's probably a high likely hood that it would break. Still that's the find of a lifetime!
 

Contact Creskol on this forum. He's easy to find in the "What is it" forum. He posts a lot and just had something professionally restored and could tell you who does it. Gary

thank you!
 

That’s just a staggering amount of amazing finds. Whew!
 

I love Vermont.
Always wanted to live there when I was younger.
Great finds! Love the 1802 cent and the dime.
What part of VT do you live in? I went camping near Springfield
quite a bit when I was a kid. Perkinsville.
Later in life, it was always awesome to take a ride up Rte 100 bottom to top and back.
Stellafane is a whole other story!
Fond memories of a beautiful state.
