This was found yesterday in hampshire co. , wondering if it is military or other, by design it dates anywhere from 1785-1820, your feedback is well recieved, thanks. It looks like three clusters of grapes with feathers or trees, the center is a triangle made of rope or braided design, with a circle
inside the triangle boarders. the back says extra and a harder to read manufacturers mark, the button is one piece but is slightly curved, looking more like an early 19th century design. Thanks
for your feedback, Glen
