Hi everyone! I just started using a metal detector and I dug up this old button out of a friend's yard in Duram, Maine. It's about 3/4 of an inch across. My buddy's house is super old (1800) and I was curious if anyone could help me date the button. I found some millitary buttons too, but they were easy to date as they had the maker's mark on the back. I'll also post a picture of the back of the button. I thought I'd just metal-detect for coins, but the metal buttons I'm finding are a lot of fun too. Thanks, Matt.

I have a great starter collection of old buttons! Extracted from a large assortment (by an experienced member of the National Button Society), it contains sets and individual buttons made of glass, painted wood, celluloid, gold-toned metal depicting various insignias, silver-toned metal, meshed, diminutives, shoe-buttons, rhinestone-decorated, plastic, moonstone, and pearlized.

Another unsorted bag of large buttons awaits your discoveries.
