Federal Artillery REGT eagle over cannon one piece

[JM1184]

Found this Artillery Reg button this morning on an old trail to some cellar holes in upstate NY, (Albany county). I'm guessing the button was made in the 1820's or 30's. "Super Fine Colour" backmark.

That's a beauty. I don't have my book but I think your dating is correct. Earlier ones did not have a edge lip.

Big congrats, it looks great!

Generally... I am not... nor have been a "button guy"...

But that is one cool arse button. Well done.

fantastic button! Love the eagle on the cannon types. Wouldn't mind digging one of those myself.

Certainly something nostalgic about a button with a cannon on it, great dig
