Default 7th large copper of the year

Went to an old ghost town that is now just a field. This town was about gone in 1882. The coins are old here.
Found the large cent. Its not great but i think its a 1830. I also think the flat button is cool. It says J. Mann Treble Gilt. Found out the button was made between 1805-1843. Pretty stinkin cool if you ask me!
