Nice Artillery Button

[vpone]

Hey All,

vp here, got out yesterday for about an hour - found a couple of lead bag seals from the railroad and this cool button

turns out it's an older Federal Artillery Button, one piece, probably pre Civil War - i'm starting to get into these buttons !

take care,

Nice Kevin...That is a great find for sure. I don't seem to find any military buttons. I would love one just like this.

hi vpone,

since it is a one piece style it would place it in the 1820's-1830's time period. very nice find.

Very cool, I think you're right that one is pre-civil war era. The first cw button I found was a Union A . Good Job.
