Got out this morning to a place I just got. Been hunting around it for years but just got the go ahead. Found some bling today, which is pretty odd for me in the places I hunt. I think the one button may be something special, but it's too far gone to know for sure. Good luck to all. Art. Forgot to mention the one piece is a bullet encased in wood. Any help with button appreciated. I think it is an 1812 artillery button?

That bullet in the wood is incredible! There's definitely a 6 on that button. I hope someone can help you out. Congrats on a good day.

Another great hunt Art. That is indeed an 1812 Artillery button. Its a script A and it has the regiment number in the circle below it. Its either 1st, 2nd or 3rd regiment... but I think I see a 1 down there, so its most likely the one labeled 36 in this image.

Very nice Art. A sweet ring and a wonderful rescue on the button. I'm thinking you was a milkman sometime in your working life because you always seem to deliver. It looks like the new permission is a good score.
