Two buttons from the Fredericksburg Battlefield. Click photo and "Detailed Description".
These are two coat-size Union Eagle buttons. They are just as they came out of the ground and both have the shanks remaining on the backs. The backmark on one button is "Scoville Mfg Co. Waterbury". The other appears to be blank, but maybe it is just worn off. They were recovered on private property on the Fredericksburg, Virginia Battlefield. Both are in nice excavated condition.
