From what I can tell, the war era rosettes have the lead filled back, like yours. The Span/Am era ones have an iron coating on the back. Then in 1902 they started using the great seal.

So awesome!
I thought it was a period rosette but just needed confirmation. I found a very chewed up 58 cal minnie ball today (hog chewed) and a tent rope tensioner. I found them in an area I beat to death with an Explorer 2 for 8 years. I can't believe my Simplex + is finding stuff the Explorer missed.

Very cool rosette.
The Simplex has proven to me that it's a very capable machine.

That is a great find. Can’t wait to see what else you will find.
