Spent about an hour detecting an old 1700's house site. Found lots of man made iron, junk and other trash. Among all the trash I hear a nice smooth high pitched tone, registering at about + 76 VDI. I dig in and out pops this beautiful button, approximately 4" in the ground. I was using the 5.3 Eclipse, relic mode, Discrimination at 1, theshold was just above audible, gain was between 8 and 9, gound was on lock after pumping the coil and grounding it. Gotta love the MXT!
 
That's a very nice button and very well preserved. A place like that deserves to be hunted over and over again. MANY TIMES!!! :please: Yes, "gotta love the MXT! Nice find! Go back and let us know what all you find there.... I'm very intrigued. HH to all, Nancy
 
Nice button . With the writting on the back can you find out how old it is? HH Dennis in Idaho
 
Thanks Nancy! I'll keep everyone posted if any more nice finds come from it.

...I looked up the backmark in Albert's button book and that particular backmark dates the manufacture period between 1834-1843.
