Was Coin hunting today and still managed my best button find!!! Updated Info

I met up with DpDave's evil twin Hunting4fun today to hit a new spot in Durant that we were sure would be loaded with good finds.. Well it was a bust or so I thought... We found no coins older than 1965. H4F did find a cool token... again.. My first relic was a hair pin or buckle. It has 6 flowers on it.
I moved around to the backyard and dug a pocket of clad. I was getting tired of digging memorials and clad dimes when I got a 10-42 on the Trac.. It repeated and thought might as well check it. Clad I did,, I mean Glad I did!!! It ended up be made from 1893 to 1940's, probably from the Indian Wars... Not as Old as I originally thought, but I LIKE IT! Woo hoo....


I did find a nice 1897 Indian but it shadows in comparison to the button... at least to me anyway...
didn't find anything else but I'm not complaining.. Do have enough for a vid.. should have it done by the end of the week...

Awesome

I am going to have to go through my buttons, I have seen that one before. Just not sure if it was one of mine or Tinthumbs, it was found at a watering spot the military used. If I find it I will get a pic up.
Oh yea, great find. Love the buttons.

thanks guys... man I would rather find pre 1900 buttons that coins... just my opinion.. lol

Is it my imagination or is that a pelican on an anchor? Oh yeah, good finds. (gotta watch that h4f )
