Most likely dropped by a Civil War soldier, it looks like it was in circulation for 20 years be for it was dropped, and considering that it was a battlefield in the Civil War and with such a huge amount of people there is a huge likelyhood that some items such as coins were dropped.
 

Every hole is like a Christmas present. Nice surprise!!
 

Congrats on the amazing find! Just thinking about the history of some of things that are posted is mind boggling!
