Button ID Request

[Cantstopdigging]

Hello Forum,

I was on a very short hunt in Lake George NY, and I found a silver plated button. Since this is a historical area, I was wondering if anyone could help me identify it. Thanks for looking.

Lovely silver washed flat button. Early to mid 1800

Yeap, not much to narrow it with just the 'PLATED' backmark.

Thanks Pepperl, and crusader

I’d guess 1830-ish. Nice find.

I was hoping for military, but I think this one is civilian. This area is historic.

Found several more coins most modern. Except this wheat and this what I think is an electrical thing.

That may be part of an electrical knock-out die set.

Perhaps part of an old drain plug for a boat.
