I found this button in a wooded area in central Ct. I've found a few coins in the area incl a large cent and an 1853 silver 3 center.
The "star" appears to be made of long leaves. If you look close you can see the feathered edges.
In between the points it looks like oak leaves protruding from the outer edges.
The construction is two-piece like a military button but the face is flat instead of domed. Markings on the back are "extra rich" but I can't really make out the manufacturers name till I clean it more.
The button was actually sitting on top of the soil when I pushed away the heavy leaf cover.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Bruce Ct
