That'll do it! My advice to you is to hunt the heck out of that field. Great find!

Hi, Great Button!!! I found 3 so far and none are in as good shape as yours!! I looked it up in Albert's button book and it appears to be the most common variety - 11A . Rarity is R1,(more than 75 known). Even so, all GW's are rare if you consider the number of button collectors there are, and the lack of GW's to supply them with. I would say your button (w/ loop?) is worth at least a grand. I'm in western MA and both of us are in good GW areas. HH
