    Two-Piece Continental Artillery Officer's Coat Button (Twice Published)
    Description: Here is a very nice Continental Artillery Officer's coat button. According to Troiani this is a French imported style made of repousse sheet copper.

This is the exact button pictured in both of Troiani's works on Revolutionary War buttons
