C1812 Artillery Corps Button

[bookfisher]

This is the first thing I've found of interest since finding the Militia Waist Belt Plate back in early November. All my old hunting spots have dried up and as we all know, finding new spots is not easy. Anyway, I decided to check out a woods about 30 minutes away, where I had found a draped bust large cent (in bad shape) last year. Good signals were far and few between, but I did come up with a few very early flat buttons and this C1812 Artillery Corps button. I think I may have over cleaned it - though it does look better in real life than in the photos.
