Hello to all..

I need help in identifying this rosette. It was dug in Hanover County in an area that was active during both the Revolutionary War and the Civil War. It was at about 10". It is lead backed but the lead is completely oxidized and most of it has crumbled away. Any help identifying it would be greatly appreciated.

I've seen that same pattern dug in civil war camps and I have one similar that I also dug in a camp. I think they were non military issued but used during the civil war era.
