| Rare Variety of George Washington Inaugural Button Found by Al C. |
While looking at the many metal detecting Facebook pages I noticed a few groups that offered paid hunts often in South Carolina. Some were seeded hunts which didn’t interest me much but others pretty much just got you access to private, hopefully historic property. I’ve done a few of these now and found some great civil war and even colonial relics. This is a find from the last hunt I went on. It is a George Washington Inaugural button. This is one of the rarer varieties and the only known examples have been found metal detecting in southern states. I think there are six or seven known. They say it’s the find of a lifetime but I am not nearly done looking so I guess we will see.
It does indeed fall in the "always someplace to hunt and something to find category." It also fits with some of my other frequent recommendations.
Lately I've heard from and have talked to a number of people that have gone on paid-hunts - some to England and others in the states. I've never done a paid hunt, but I guess a good number of people are doing them these days.
I always enjoyed metal detecting new places and when I was working, took my metal detector on business trips whenever I could. I always learned something new from detecting new places even though it could take a while to scout them out and find out which were worthwhile, and which were not.
Recently I did a post about the most successful detectorists little farther and doing a little more. That included a lot of things, but it also included going to and gaining access to areas that you have never detected before. There are a lot of ways to do that, but a paid-hunt is one way to gain access to new detecting grounds that provide historic finds in areas that have been proven to be productive. You don't really have to start from scratch because you aleady know something about the area and have some guidance from people who know the area.
Congratulations on the great find Al. And thanks for sharing.

It looks like we'll get a nice increase in the surf. with more days of good surf in the near future. The wind will be switching from north to east and south, so that will give some movement of sand at different directions and give different beaches a shot at some good improvement.
Good hunting,
