I'm pretty sure that Eagle button is a US Air Force uniform button.

Little goose was practicing his Tai chi moves. That lead soldier looks great

I remember the "I am brett"  episode 😂. I also remember telling you I had a Lambretta LI 150 scooter in the 60s. I was shouting at the TV at the time 😂. I will definitely try and get a t shirt ❤.

That gosling stretch was too adorable!

What men want is no different from what women want and that is to be loved,respected and understood and to be heard clearly. In my mind there is no pink or blue but people living their best lives doing no harm in this world.

It's amazing how clay pipes could stay intact for all those centuries.
Really, really loved that toy soldier. He is incredibly detailed.

The smiley face made out of random bits and pieces was super cute.

The eagle button is from the U.S. Military, and from my research, seems to be from the army in World War I, so the same time line as the French flag bearer figure. The U.S. Army had similar styled buttons in both world wars (I remember seeing eagle buttons on my father's WW II uniform), but the brass from which they were made was a little different between wars. The WW I had the color more similar to what you found, while the WWII button took on a slightly different patina.

And I laughed at the I am Brett shirt because I recalled the episode immediately. An all time classic moment in mudlark history!

I love the little soldier with his flag.  It is always incredible to me that something so fragile can be tossed around a river and come out whole.

The Button is a US Great Seal button, Possibly US Army WWI.

Nicola, your message in a bottle was meant for the infernal underworld, specifically it's addressed to the demon Amdusias. The symbol in the middle, with his name around it, is his 'sigil' - his special symbol to which he must respond when conjured. The drawing of such a sigil on a piece of paper is a way to conjure the demon. And warning : the paper may also have drops of blood on it. Amdusias is not a particularly malevolent demon and is in fact rather musical. Here's a reference from the 'Pseudomonarchia Daemonium : Amduscias a great and a strong duke, he commeth foorth as an unicorne, when he standeth before his maister in humane shape, being commanded, he easilie bringeth to passe, that trumpets and all musicall instruments may be heard and not seene, and also that trees shall bend and incline, according to the conjurors will, he is excellent among familiars, and hath nine and twentie legions (of lesser demons under his command) [ref] Weyer, Johann. “Amduscias.” Pseudomonarchia Daemonum. 1583. I wonder if the lady witch got an answer to her question ?

you do as you want,rub what you like,it is you who goes out,take no notice of trolls.

I love that you give these average, unextraordinary people of another age a moment to be remembered. History retains the names of rulers and heroes, but Joe Anyman remains lost to time eternal.

If I lived in England, I'd be mudlarking all the time.

THE SOLDIER CAME OUT AMAZING 👏!!!

WOW Thats brilliant how youve managed to clean and restore that soldier

" I am Brett" T- shirt ! 😆🛵🇨🇦

Simon has revealed his daytime job!!!  Fashion model!

Love the 'I AM BRETT ' t-shirt

Thank you for another interesting, beautiful, and very absorbing video.  The more disabled I become, the more I  take pleasure in videos of this kind, because as I've said before,  you make it seem almost as good as walking alongside you, and I really appreciate all the time and effort you put in to share such great moments with us all.  God bless you. 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤  Edit:  the eagle button is, as others have said, from a  US Army uniform, most likely.😊
