I found this button yesterday and have not been able to ID it. It is 1 inch in dia and has a convex face. Part of the back is missing and I can read a few letters from the back. There are 2 words over his head and possibly some underneath. The first word begins with BO and the second begins with an R or possibly a B. This button was found along with some flat buttons near a 1776 homesite. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
buddyb

Looks like a Zachary Taylor "Rough & Ready" political button from 1848.

TNX guys, that was quick. Is it a sew on button or a pin on?

Never mind the question, I found pictures of the back showing it to be a sew on button.
TNX again
