I find so few buttons , even Flat ones (5-7) in almost 20 years.

I did not even know there was a 1 piece Cast ' A 'button made.

Yours is Super Nice sweet condition , a Banner find in my Book.
Thanks for Sharing.

Had to edit my mistake ; I turned "C" into a " A " .

Thanks for the great information on my A button. I ended up contacting William Leigh about my button and he confirmed that it is a T. Miller produced button. I'm now looking into Texas troops that were in the vicinity of where I dug the button.

That's great to know. Good luck on future hunts.
