Someone is "gilty" of short hunts, but that is okay. That is one hell of a button any day.

Congrats, on my short hunts I usually bring home beer tabs, bottle caps and maybe a square nail or two if I'm lucky.

Thanks everyone for comments. I went to a museum today and saw a coat with this same button. The coat was from the Civil War Era 42nd Volunteer Regiment and was a Major Ranked Officer.

Beautiful infantry button! Soak the top side only in lemon juice for 30-40 seconds, and watch the gilt pop out
