Nice button day at a new field. Some help on a few.

[Vino]

Received new permission today to hunt a field that goes back 300 years of continuous farming..
I did a quick walk through just to see what would pop out.
I found some early buttons, there are 2 that i have never seen, any help on dating them would be great.
1 looks like a blow hole, except no holes and the top is black?
Any idea would be appreciated.
Lots of lead, and balls.
The only coin i pulled out was a sheild nickle, that was 7inch down,
The rest were just 2 or 3 inch under, even the musket balls were on top.
Got to love plowing.
Enjoy the pics and please chime in.

Ps the last pic is of a USA button, but there is enough left for a proper idea! !! Lol.

When we get into a pocket of early buttons like that it's pretty common for a military to show up... it's just tough coming up with the 1700s sites now.

Well this site supposedly, had 2000 men from the continental army camped there..
Will see? Lol.

If that's true then you should have probably already found a military button. Was this the real army or fake one?
