I was looking at the finds I found this afternoon and noticed on of the buttons had something around the rim. It had the following around the rim A.J. Tower Co. The A.J. tower company made rain slickers used by cowboys on cattle drives in the 1800's. The A.J. tower co was in business from the mid to early 1800's to 1946. The jackets where also used by farmers and fishmern.

The copper button was found in hold with the silver quater I found in the other post
