Went out detecting this evening for a couple of hours and came of with a few goodies. An 1840 half dime and two flat buttons. My second silver ever,(my first being a '52 Rosie). One button has a lot of gilt still left.https://metaldetectingforum.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=380352&stc=1&d=1490413949

Half Dime and a couple flat buttons (for the second time)

Went out detecting for a couple of hours and scored a few goodies. An 1840 half dime and two flat buttons. Bare with me as I am new and can't figure out how to post stuff. https://metaldetectingforum.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=380359&stc=1&d=1490414887
