I went back to the old farm site I discovered this spring for a couple of hours in the afternoon. I found the Large Cent a few feet away from the last three I found. It looks like it was in a fire because it had some concretion on it. I also found more hammered head nails and some fired bullets. The small domed military button appears to say "Extra Gilt" on the back.
