Here are two unique buttons I found in the same field as the coppers - the first I found was the ultra-tiny oval button with the anchor on it (I used the dime for reference on how small it truly is), like a dummie I used some water to clean it and a dab of olive oil...which in turn made it darker to see (me bright!) - it's an anchor with a fine rope wrapped around it, although it's hard to see - anyone know what this is, if military, and if so, how old?
The other button was found at the far end of the field in a turn, totally random since there were no tones for at least 1/2 football field away from those coppers - so perhaps the person needed to find a really good tree to drop their drawers 200+ years ago, who knows?
Anyway, the button is about the size of a quarter and has a crown on the top and what appears to be a hunting horn object (powder horn), anyone know if this is military as well?
