This ranks as 1 of my top finds for the year/ever. I've never found anything gold or gold plated but what a weekend we had. We hunting a big private farm here in northern Carroll County, MD. I think we may have stumbled into a possible Civil War camp but we need to go back and spend more time. In 5 mins my buddy pulls out a fired what looks to be a .54 or .58 cal miniball. 30 mins later a fired musketball. I didn't find anything that day but I went back the next day and only had 1.5 hours to hunt and found a fired musketball and GOLD plated button. I was told it dates back between 1811-27. Thank You to Fyrrytr1 for nailing that down. Here is the pic and link to the video if you want to check it out.
