A couple years ago I was fortunate enough to dig an eagle out of the ground. Little did I know it was a War of 1812 hat pin. The way I know is I asked American Digger magazine what it was. They put me in touch with an author of military hat pins.

Pretty cool, looks like the Soldier carved it out of the plate.
 
I found my first war of 1812 relic this past year, just a crusty button now unfortunately. That thing is pretty sweet, I'd say a display case should be in the works! :yes: congrats!
