This button was found at a local park in central Indiana. The park was established on the site of an old farm which I believe was built at the beginning of the 1900's. I was detecting over where I believe the old home once stood. I did not find any coins to date the area, only some old rusted clock parts and a harmonica reed. I found a short square nail that I suspect was a horseshoe nail. The design of the button is obviously that of a Civil War naval button, but I do not know if this is a legitimate Civil War button or a later reproduction. Here is a picture of the back.
