military button with 13 stars

[alabama11]

Hunting HUD housing again, but no housing is there anymore.
My black cat friend was there too.
No early relics have showed up till today after 4 inches of rain.
Got about 15 coins.
The button which has no remaining back piece is 1830 us said relicman which is correction to my original post.. The 1970 s penny was a nice surprise too.
All the best.

Nice find, A11! Do you know what the history is of the property before it was HUD housing?

I know the Masons donated the land to the city.
Also the road there was a major connection between the city county seat and
An enormous union army occupation camp. East of there was a matrix of
warehousing buildings and railroad tracks. An urban area since 1900.

In the 1830’s is when the native Americans were being moved to lands out west, correct? Maybe you are in an area where that activity was happening? Good luck with your hunting, a11!

You are correct about the removal.
I now have seen 2 of these time specific buttons in this 2 county area.
Some natives were shipped by barges within 20 miles of here.

I knew there would early material once we got the modern pushed away.
Best.

I agree that it is a modern blazer button rather than a military button.
