I am definitely digging that War of 1812 button! :headbang: That Colonial shoe buckle isn't too shabby as well. :icon_thumleft:

I found one very similar to that one yesterday I didn't think much of it because of the condition mine also seems to have writing on the front somthing like TRES. Very nice find :icon_thumleft:

Leddel,
Way to go on a great group of finds. :icon_thumleft: It took me awhile, but I think this is your button.
Any back mark? ???
Congrats,
MM

Sscindercoop,
I'm guessing yours perhaps says "1 REG" (1st Regiment) on the front instead of "TRES". It's hard to tell which one you have, but here's an example of what is in Albert's book.

Talk about history. How come that's not on the banner? I would love to find something like that.
Congratulations on a outstanding find.
