Those are some good finds.

That NY button thingy is interesting, never seen a backing like that.
Thanks. I was told is was part of a post war belt. I don't know though. It came out of a right spot surrounded by Confederate relics. I was thinking a cape closure of some sort. Who knows.
 

More very nice finds , those do look like 'Ga Teats' def, Rebel IMO .

Nice NY thingy & Eagle Thingy .

I have dug similar buttons like the Eagle but cannot recall if they were a CW type ?
or had another design ' if any on then ' It or they were Cuff size in my poor recollection .

Peace
 

I am pretty sure the "button" is from a belt. I found one at a Spanish-American war camp site near my house. And, I found this example online.View attachment 2173303View attachment 2173304

It's different buddy. It's not as heavy. Thanks for the picture of yours.

Yes they're Georgia bullets buddy. My first dropped ones.
 

I have only Dug 5 or so Dropped GA Minnies with the Teat , all from 1 small skirmish site , Since Developed FWIW ?

I may have more but I have yet to clean up most of my digs.

If I recall a few 'Have that look' ?

Have a good one .
 

Once again the permission treated you well.
Congrats on the recoveries.
