DIV XV Finds - Rare Union Button!

[ResearchandRecovery]

I had the opportunity to dig with some of the best Relic Hunters in the world a few weekends ago! We went to Culpeper, VA and had a blast and I was able to capture a nice "FF" Fitchburg Fusileers Button!

I forgot to mention that this is actually a "Pre-Civil War" button. The Fitchburg Fusileers were a small state militia and dissolved into 15th Massachusetts Company B during the Civil War.
