Canada Militia button

[treasurepirate1]

earlier this year i was digging next to a cellar hole and it was the last target of the day i ended up digging a shotgun shell lets say 4 inches down so i rescanned the hole and got a good signal between some iron objects i lifted a rock that used to be part of the foundation about 6 inches down and got a signal on the pinpointer i dug where the pinpointer said and out popped a round object i thought i got an old small cent with some dirt on it or another shot gun shell, so i was a but exited and when i looked at it closer i noticed the crown and the shank so i started screaming DAAAAAAAAAD LOOK WHAT FOUND he was far away so i pulled out my camera at the speed of light and started filming as i was gently wiping off the dirt, i could read Canada and see the crown and maple leafs surrounding the entire button and got exited. When i got home the full detail of this button came out i was really surprised of the condition and i still have no clue how rare or even how old it is, it is a two piece brass or copper button with a one piece shank that freely moves.

Not considered rare or valuable in the real world, but you aren't going to find one every day. They probably date late 1800s, and I have one of the large ones, and maybe 1 or 2 cuff size.
