Hey guys! I got out today with my brother-in-law, and after he fell into the creek and destroyed his ace 250 and his phone, we dug this button. It looks to be some kind of eagle head, but I can't find an ID for this. I NEED YOUR HELP! please give me the button master knowledge of what this is. thanks!

this is very close! however, mine is facing the other way, and is the size of a dime... probably a cuff button. I wish I could I.D. it so I could see the era it is from to know if it is worth the time to clean the old place up and hunt it. Anyone know the rough era this button may be from?

Im curious to see if you ever ID this button. I dug one like it today and the only thing I have found on it was the same pic you used as a representation. This is uncleaned am kinda afraid to do much till I can ID it. Thanks
