Nice button. It's amazing what's in our yards. How many times have you hunted your yard? I find something everytime I hunt mine.

Very Nice Find Cman!!! Charity begins at home, I guess. Have you found CW relics there before? HH.

civil, I believe it may be an Albert #14 (marines) which would place the date perhaps around 1890.

 

[johnnyi]

just thinking, it could possibly be an earlier #11 (1860's) but the stars on your's look too big to me for that.
