I went out tonight for a few hours to one of my permissions that has always been good to me. The property has always produced something nice each time I go out there,

And today I think I may have found a civil war button, but I am not sure of the variety.

I think you found one as well! Can you make out the backmark on the button? Any words or letters? Nice find!

Here's my best guess.....pretty sure the stars in the shield date it to post civil war

think Tedyoh got it right - I got a staff officer coat and a cuff this past Dec on a CW hunt - mine look similar but mine are CW era
nice find
