Over the past few months I've been digging up this war of 1812 campsite I discovered in the woods. I have found around 70 flat buttons in this small area. I was able to identify around 9 from the War of 1812. Most were American infantry and artillery ones. But I can't seem to find a match for these buttons. I know you can't see them that well but I tried cleaning them the best I could. Also found what looks like to be the bottom half of a badge that says crimea on the bottom. Was wondering if anyone has ever seen this or knows what it was? Some people said it might be a crimean war campaign medal or something but if it was I was wondering why it would be found with all of the war of 1812 stuff? Also this small lead thing that says JD on it?
