This button is a brass, two piece type with the back having corroded away. It is 22.2 mm wide. It appears to feature a stylish “R” and was found in North Alabama on a site that was occupied by both Union and Confederate soldiers during the Civil War.
Any information on type, age, rarity, would be appreciated. Although it was found on a site that has produced civil war artifacts, I recognize that it could be civilian.
