Camp still producing....

[quicksilver]

Went with a good digging buddy to a spot that was a pretty big camp, throughout the entire war, used by both armies. Thought maybe this place was beat pretty hard, but I recently switched machines, the one I'm using now has sort of brought it back to life I think. So these are today's finds and this don't include what digger70pa found. The U.S. button is my favorite find today, if anyone knows what it is please tell me. Thanks for looking. Good luck....

Don't know for sure but I think I've seen buttons like that identified as being from the war of 1812

Google civil war button book and it shows a picture of your button, says its a rare civil war button

It's not a civil war button. It's called a great coat button from the 1820s. However, confederate uniforms used whatever buttons could be scraped up, including wood, hard rubber, and federal eagles.

It's a U.S. Great Coat Button, with a rarity of 27 in existence! Valued at about $800.00, I Found this info online

I don't know where you gys are getting this info, but it's incorrect. They are only worth about $25 in dug condition. It's still a great find.
