I found a bunch of goodies I cannot believe I was just tossing these buttons away but on this particular one is it me or does it look a little bit like in the eagle wing and stars on the top maybe I’m deliriously tired you tell me your opinion? Last picture I put in different shading I think that’s an eagle with stars it looks like an old eagle I can’t sleep

I think you found a winner . I have that button in a convex form . congrats.
Yeah I saw where the the two piece was made after the 1830s I think this is the flat one that was before that tic!! Omg I can’t believe this happened to me just by looking through old stuff thank God it’s been raining and freezing here in Louisiana for the past week I would’ve probably not have had the cabin fever to check my trash I didn’t isolate from Covid at all. I hear in Louisiana we hate wet cold more than Covid
