Calvary button

[Older The Better]

I’ll try to do my part but I don’t have much to offer not a lot of civil war activity in my area, it was just in the process of transferring from the Osage to whites at that time. I had no idea what I found till I took it home and cleaned it up a bit, totally unexpected find and one of my favorites.

Nice button, there is a real good chance it dates to the civil war.
"J.C.Fuller, Philadelphia, 40 3rd st. & 712 Chestnut. John C, Fuller was a jewelry maker and importer from 1857-1867. Buttons with his backmark have been dug from Civil War sites."

Not offended at all I find my spelling skills slipping with autocorrect and instant spell check, guess it got me since both are actual words

Awesome thanks for the information I couldn’t remember if it was truly civil war or if the date extended into the Indian wars.

It took me years before I actually got it right most of the time.

Great find. Every button I dig I look for a C or A or R. But so far the only letters I hav egoism is the I. Congratulations.

Yes I agree & also thought the backmark was not a common one (in my mind ) .

Nice C button there.
