    I think you are on the right track with the Regiment of the Foot "33" being of British origin. There were enough similar examples to persuade me. Great finds and another fun episode ! Thank you

    • @imdrunken
      @imdrunken Před rokem +2

      I think it is french

    • @imdrunken
      @imdrunken Před rokem +3

      The 33rd french buttons even have that dot up top

  • @gregkerr725
    @gregkerr725 Před rokem +8

    I believe that button is the British 33rd regiment of foot (wellington's regiment) It was sent to America to fight in the revolutionary war and was here until 1781 when most of the regiment surrendered at Yorktown. A detachment which was in Charleston escaped capture and ended up in Canada where it was joined by the rest of the regiment when those guys were released from captivity in 1783.. I imagine there would be some minor variances in button styles due to the fact that they were in America so long that I would imagine some buttons were locally sourced. Very cool find!!!

  • @bahldr01
    @bahldr01 Před 2 měsíci +1

    Maybe your mystery item @10:21 is the base of something hollow and 33 was its number in the line of production? I agree that it looks like a two piece button, but the spun design on the back and the cracked nature of the entire edge makes me think it was part of something bigger.

    Hi Kurt and Brad of the Hoover Boys, it's me Timothy, try some vinegar and water and a eraser, heat up the water and vinegar, then put it in a glass bowl, put your silver coins in the bowl with the water and vinegar mixture for a few minutes and then use the eraser to clean the silver coins like shiny new
