Found these items in Civil War area in Atlanta

[pulltabfelix]

Found these items in a civil war area in Atlanta.

one is the neck of old medicine bottle using a rubber or cork stopper.
two small caliber fired bullets. Cannot ID these as CW or modern.

The most interesting one is a small six sided button or tack. It is not magnetic and has a slight green showing. I suspect brass or copper. I made two pictures showing front or back.

All of these were found within a four foot diameter circle like area with some old white thick broken potter fragments (not shown in picture).

any idea about the metal item what it might be? A civil war era artifact or just some old tack?

Thanks, the area was a small park with a neighborhood of 1930-1940 homes.
