Log Cabin button and 1818 Large Cent

[Digs2much]

I detected an 1820's house yesterday and dug a couple good finds. First a nice 1818 Large cent(my 2nd 1818 lc this week) and a nice Log Cabin button. I think the button is a W.H Harrison Campaing button...? I remember reading an interesting article in W&E about someone finding one and thinking it was a Lincoln button instead. If anyone knows much about them, I'd appreciate the info! It's backmarked "Ives Kendrick & Co. Extra" Thanks!

Thats a very nice 1840 William Henry Harrison campaign button. What kind of backmark does it have?
