Nice two piece button. Appears to have an Ibis on it.

Not military, but appears to be to older. Does it have a backmark?

Nice find.

Edit: The more I look at the back, especially the loop, I suspect that this is a more modern fashion button.

Nice find.

I agree with Tom, to me it appears to be a Southeast Asian theme with the pagoda and curved bridge, palm tree, tropical flower, and ibis. Very cool and unusual. Sub8-)

The gilt on the face and the design look old but like Tom said the loop doesn’t seem to fit .perhaps I just haven’t seen this style.

That top item in the pic is a watch winder, I believe. A better pic might confirm that.

The coin on the far left is either a flying eagle or a 1859 Indian, as the reverse has no shield above the wreath. The thimble is silver, isn't it?

Dude, you got good stuff. We need to see better pics.
