finds for the day and a civil war story developing in my finds 1925 wheatie ,17d,18,and the belt buckle i think , as for the story , i found a civil war officers coat button and now i have found a pin , that belonged to the same man , james hill from cascade iowa , he built the house i found these things at , and came back to cascade after the war and lived and died there , he had a lot to do with the early development of our town, here;s the button and a picture of the pin, couldnt get a good picture so i copied it on a coping machine and took a pic of that , the local historian said it was a wonderful find and i think i will donate the articles to the historical society in our town , thanks for looking

Interesting finds, as always, Dave.

It is not often that you can find the story behind items found.

Terrific idea to donate to historical society.
