Got out with Gary(foundationhunter) to a long down the mountain dirt road to a cellar hole site (ps the walk back up stunk) Gary got a nice oval Civil war US boxplate,i got a few buttons, a bridle roseette,a key hole plate and this dated 1864 pewter eagle thing which i beleive is a presidential campaign pin. 2 portraits may have went in the oval portions and are long gone was a long hike but a good day.ticks were abundent but weather was gorgeous!

Maybe the pin had john Fremont and his mate William Dayton as CT went with them in '54. Any party emblems on it?
