I found this revolutionary war button in the same site I found that English token down around Charleston, South Carolina. This button was worn by an american soldier fighting for our country's independance back around 1776. I love finding stuff like this, trust me it's quite a thrill!

Wow!! nice find. I've never heard of anyone finding one of those. I've seen the USA bar copper coin which is undated but says 1785 in the Red Book. Do you want to know a value? Go to shilorelics.com. He has a nice USA button for $650.
