A lot of war of 1812 artifacts found here. Found this and don't know what it is. It's the size of a silver dollar maybe a little bigger. There seems to be two pistols crossing each other below the eagle with lettering below that. The eagles head is facing left. There are stars starting at center edge going around to the opposite center edge on top.

It's been a great site producing lots of finds from 1640 thru 1857!

I cleaned it with Lemmon juice. I could barley make anything out.
