Here's my digs for the weekend The buff is a '36

The token was a shock to find and registered an 81 on the LCD display at 2" deep. It reads "The Confederate States of America" on the obverse and "DEO VINDICE" Feb. 22, 1862. Notice the horse rider in the middle? The token is about the same size as a half
