Confederate Button, Large Cent & Swastika

[HIGHSTRUNG]

Got out for a bit yesterday and this morning. First find was the swastika and thought to myself it is going to be a bad day. I couldn't make out what was written on it but could for sure see the swastika. I went a few more steps and found a flat button. Next I scratched 2 musket balls from my favorite little hill side. I decided to go a little deeper in the woods and stumbled across the large cent. Had to leave but went back this morning for a few and found 2 Palmetto buttons. I'm still trying to find one like them on the WWW. They are flat buttons and the back mark is W.H.Horstmann & Co New York and maybe superb or superior. I figured they would have has SC on the front but they don't. Anyway thanks for looking and good luck out there!

After looking through a few books I'm pretty sure the button is a militia pre-civil war. It was found very close to all the musket balls I've been finding so I'm thinking maybe a camp site. Thanks for all the comments and HH!
