Enfiled and Confederate flat button

Well-known member
My digging buddies returned back to the site yesterday where I dug the Yankee Belt plate two weeks. No additional plates this time, but I dig dig two fired enfiled bullets, and my first flat button from the site, which may be Confederate, baeed upon the writing on the back, which states; " TREBLE GILT STAND d". According to relicman.com, the majoirty of buttons, with back marks, TREBLE GILT, RICH GILT, etc, are of English manufacturer for the Southern troops. And since the site we've been detecting was a known battlefiled, once can only deduice that this button more than likley belonged to a Southern trooper.

Unfortuntley the face of the button has no discernable markings, but the back mark is clearly discernable with gilt still entact.

Best-

Wayne
