[/img] Started a new midway strip getting a long way from the old area mostly 50s wheat's and dimes . Did get one Indian at 7 inches deep but corroded . Found a button today , is this a eagle button don't dig many old buttons here anyway it was 6 inches deep. If anybody knows how old the button is I would appreciate it thanks . Most of the dimes were at 3 to 4 inches deep everyone had iron with them , probably why they still were here . Nice day to get out overcast and cool , hope you got out . sube

Sube - you are a machine. All I can say is WOW!!! You need to get a tally from that spot. Shooting for 200 silvers?? Good job as usual!

GKMan what I got on the back of the button was - - ANS + HASSALL I don't know what the first two letters are but the rest I'm pretty sure . As for a better pic can't do .Thanks sube

I cant see the front all that well, but it could be an "Evans and Hassal" civil war era button.

Sube

If GKMan has identified the back mark as civil war period. The face of your button is what we call a General Service button due to the shield in the eagles breast.
