I only had about 30 minutes because of a thunderstorm moving in but it was a good halfhour...
I found another minnie, this one has a sloid base and is slightly smaller than the one from Friday, from the same site. They are both in the pics. Both the bullets seem to have been bitten.
I found a button back with the loop. The back is grey and has a crown, two stars, the words "Extra Quality" and some other words around the edge that I cannot read. It measures 1 1/8" across.
Then I found a Sutlers token. It is a token by D.J. Church who was the regimental sutler for the 105th Ohio Volunteer Infantry. It is so thin that I almost threw it away but I thought maybe it was "play money". When I cleaned it up a little I was very surprised. You can see some of the writing in the pictures. It is setting a little sideways because I really didn't expect anything to show up in the picture..
One picture show's a small picture frame I found Friday at the same site. One picture show's how thin the token is.
