    Possible Military Button?

    This is a button that my brother found a couple weeks ago. He found it at the same depth and area that we have been finding some early 1900s or slighty older coins, and we were wondering if anyone knew anything about the button. Let us know if you have any information on it! Thanks to everyone

    Read the backmark on it. Then check it against the list on this link:

    Thanks Lowbatts, we looked at the back and we can see a few letters, but not much of it yet. My dad (s.d.) is trying to clean some of it off now, so hopefully we'll be able to know soon!

    My first impression is WWI general service (post 1902). . . backmarks will tell the tale
