1860's stoneware ink bottle ,silver,Indians and need id on badge button

What a nice day it was , sunny ,temp just right I started to head to a place i want to investigate but before I got there i spotted a nice field so I stopped and talked to the old farmer and he said sure go ahead just fill in your holes , so just getting started I look up and spot this odd thing on top of the ground turns out to be a 1860's stoneware ink bottle and after finding a few items I was pulling a indian out of the ground and as I was digging i look over and there is a coin laying right ontop of the ground turned out to be a 1887 indian and the one in the hole was a 1898 so moving on I find this badge looking item and im hoping someone on here can give me some info on it and an ID it has three stars and a shield and I also found a nice little dime and another coin with two holes drilled in it but unfortunately its toasted and cant id it and then scored a musket ball and a bunch of camp lead and a flat button with just a hint of quilt let on it .So all in all not a bad day ! thanks for looking and any info on the badge item is appreciated !

cool finds. looks like creskol had an answer for you within 30 minutes. :icon_thumleft:
 

good work on those finds there ifoundit!
 

Nice finds IF69. If Creskol, Kuger. Breezie, or the Cannonball Guy can't identify a relic, we are in trouble as they are all very good. resources HH, Quindy.
 

Great Hunt! Awesome finds!!!
 

Aint that the truth Quindy ! Heck we would all be spending more time trying to ID then metal detecting ....... they are a wealth of knowledge and greatly appreciated ! I just about have that coin with the holes in it ID'ed I soak it in baby oil all night and to my surprise it brought some detail out in it I figured it was toast anyway why not give it a try ..turns out its a Indian Head still working on the date ...
