I was checking out a new spot and didn't get to hunt long.But was real happy with the discovery's I found.Believe it's going to be a pretty good spot.Started finding some coins first,nothing real old.Then up popped this button,i stuck it in my bag trying to hurry up and get all the hunt in I could.So I got home later and halfway cleaned the button and it's a union infrantry button,back mark reads young smith & co. New York. The reed has a b with some symbols on it,maybe b flat.Don't know nothing about that stuff. Thanks for looking. Sorry for the bad pics.
