Button the right. Spider web button. This was found on a plantation site that was from 1780s-1840s. This is the first button I have dug of this kind and I am thinking late 1820s-1830s? during Andrew Jackson time period. I know during Jackson's time period in office they had lot of odd kewl buttons like Jacksonians and other odd looking artifacts. Or would this be late 18th century or early 19th? Most 18th century flat buttons or early 19th c. buttons we dug in this area of Virginia have different patina and then the artifacts we find from the 1830s+ look better patina if you get what I am saying. So I think this is from the 1820s-1830s? or am i wrong?
