Relic hunting the infamous "Button Dump" in CT. (Metal detecting)
Loading...
Uploaded by SHNewEngland on Jul 8, 2010
Bill Ladd & crew return to ruins of an old paper mill to excavate rare uniform buttons that were stripped off clothing collected by "the ragman". A once-in-a- lifetime site with literally thousands of buttons to dig through, this was a very popular featured article in WESTERN & EASTERN TREASURES magazine. Now it's brought to life on film. Another 25 min. "button dump" dig was also the most popular episode on Bill's first treasure hunting DVD that has sold over 300 copies w. no advertising.......
