A couple digs before the rain..

[blugotti1]

Hey guys. Hope everyone is doing great! I got out this morning a bit before it started raining on me and found a few things. I did get one silver plated button and it has the number "3" stamped on it?? Never found one with that or didn't notice it. And i think I found a scabbard tip?? Not sure. All the years of hunting civil war and rev camps and never found one. If anyone knows, please let me know..And lastly, a fired musket ball.. So thanks everyone for stopping by and any help.HH!!!

Nice recovery! Congrats. Wonder if the text TED is a manufacturer or a grade of the button.

Isn't there a a script of something above the shank & the #3 in your picture. It appears to look like TED in your picture. Maybe it reads something else?

Does anyone know if the middle piece in the pictures is a bayonet tip or scabbard tip? It is hollow and triangle shaped inside.

It looks to be a scabbard tip. Nice finds!
