Since I don't have any sites to hunt yet I have been going through some older finds and wanted to share this one.
I found this button about 20 years ago in the Hagerstown, Md. area. I have seen carved bullets and even have a few crude ones but this is the only carved button I know of.
It looks like a soldier may have had some idle time while in camp and decided to remove the eagle from a coat button.
It would have been nice to find the eagle
