Civil War Button Found in Exceptional Condition

Virginia Staff Officer’s Coat Button

My occupation is in Sales, but while a contractor was developing the property where I was previously employed I saw people metal detecting. After asking them what they were finding and hearing about the Civil War relics they were finding I got hooked!

That was about 8 years ago, and I've been metal detecting beaches or anywhere I can find Civil War relics ever since!

I was recently hunting in a construction site, looking for Civil War relics with my Fisher 1266-X and a shovel. Nobody was with me while I hunted that day, and the top soil had been piled up from the construction that was going on nearby. It was already dark out, but I had a flashlight and was determined to get a hunt in that day. After only about 10 minutes I got a signal, and about 8" down I found my favorite find to date.

It's a sweet, and I mean sweet, Virginia Staff Officer's Coat Button. I had to use my flashlight to see exactly what kind of button it was, but it was a friend of mine who identified it; he's been detecting Civil War relics for over 20 years and knew what it was right away.

I've been told I'll never dig another button in such good condition. Enjoy the photos of it, I certainly enjoy looking at it!
