Queens Rangers Button (War of 1812)

[bergie]

Found this cool Queens Rangers button (see QR in oval under eagle). This would have been worn by loyalist Canadian or American fighting for the British (War of 1812 era based on site found). Sorry photo isn't that great. Best I could do! Any info on this button appreciated... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen's_Rangers
