But if you're only gonna find one, it might as well be military, right? After some unsuccessful scouting on Saturday, I ventured into an overgrown field where I have found a few buttons and a King George II in the past. I found a small caliber musketball, then I got a good button signal and dug this one piece eagle infantry button. The eagle is pretty faint, but you can see the I on his shield. This button would have been silver plated at one time. This style was in use from 1821 until the early 1840s.
