Hi All! Finally first day with no rain and I went downtown to the old park. Loads of clad and what-not, then this popped out from about 6" down.

I think (and feel free to enlighten me here), this is from the 118th Pennsylvania Volunteers "The Corn Exchange Regiment". Maybe a hat badge or something. Help Help!

It reads as follows:

A.S.L. Ent
Co D
118th Regt P.V.

I also forgot to post about 3 weeks back that I found a NC Sunburst button with a hole in it. I thought it was a token at first, since there was no back. But a friend helped me out and ta-da! Still a sweet find.

UPDATE! ~ Garrett Find of the Month

Holy cow! Just got the email today from Garrett and they chose my badge as April's Find of the Month (1 of 2). This has been such a great experience. Thank you to all that encouraged me to send it in! My day (week/month/year) couldn't have gotten any better!

Geez...I am not on FB, but was able to have a friend pull it up. My story sounds so goofy when I read it in print. Please forgive ..... I was still so excited from the find. Usually, I am a bit more profound. :BangHead:
