Hi STH69 - I'm in Houston so can't be much help, but you may want to try joining some of the local detecting clubs in your area. Otherwise, you can hunt parks, schools, woods, etc., but just make sure you check the rules and make sure it is legal.

You could post the button in the What Is It? forum. There are books available that some folks refer to, but I don't have the titles...

Too bad about the clubs...

Welcome to T-Net! And to the Addiction

Your going to love this place. Full of great folks and knowledge. I agree put it on the What Is It forum, also.... they got a forum dedicated to military buttons. Maybe some one can hone in on that beauty. HH

Hey what are you doing with the pocket button off my Class As
(just kidding!!!) But thats the first image that I thought.

It's unanimous, try posting in the What is it forum, better men
than us live there.

And welcome to a world of more fun than most hobbies!

Hey that's my button! I lost it a few weeks ago in your yard. I'd look up PBK and ask him. He can identify anything. If you found that in your yard you'd better get back out there. Good luck.
