7thCorps (VII) Union Army badge? They used this crescent & star device.
Two corps of the Union Army were called the VII Corps during Civil War.
Operating in Virginia & Arkansas. The Virginia Corps was split up into other corps late in the war.
Delving a little into corps genealogy I was trying to draw a connection between soldiers formerly in the VII Corps & the Battle of Olustee & operations in Northern Florida.
Maybe.

Relicdude,
It has been awhile since you posted? We second seminole war guys in Florida always look for your posts. You find some amazing stuff where you are in Northern Florida. Please keep posting your finds when you have time.
I like iron patch, old river, vayank, buckle boy and you as my favorites on this site.
I am wondering if you are finding spots that have had multiple settlements on top of one another? You seem to find French, Spanish and US military relics all in the same spot. Truly amazing.

Re: 1812 button & a few more relics!
Nice early navy. I love those types of buttons. The D ring is to a sword belt. Looks civil war period to me. The lead star and moon could be a Louisiana Cresenet Emblem. I dug a cast lead in a 1863-'64 confederate camp back in the 80's. The little clasp thing to the left of the pic it to a watch chain and looks like it might be silver.
armchairQB30, I noticed your comment, Thanks

Your moon & star looks to me that it may be a cape pin.
