Found a pewter button today.

I think it is the 83rd, it came from an old tavern site.

KILLER button there!

Any idea on its age Iron Patch? It came from an 1850s time period site, I think maybe 1840s time frame.

I think that's probably right. My book doesn't show that particular 83rd, but the belt plate that best matches dates 1840-1850... so the button is probably the same.
