Not exactly the same, the one I found has arrows in left talon, no olive branch, and no regiment oval. Where this was found produced Rev War and earlier artifacts, I am thinking maybe it's older than 1812.
interesting find, good luck on the ID
I guess that's it. Interesting that a 1811 button turned up on a early site that has never produced buttons that late.
If you don't want it I know someone who does!
You never know who or how it got there but things show up in odd places. Searching the site of a long gone one room school house here in Shippensburg, PA we found Chinese Coins from the 1700's. A coworker gardening found a coin from Thailand while planting his vegetables. It is so cool yet leaves you scratching your head
