Take a look at this for the Navy-style button:

metaldetkid, I see you have the AT's so why the 400?

Pretty ring congrats on the silver and other nice finds

That's a 1900s blazer button modeled after a Civil War Navy button. The iron back gives it away. Also the Great Seal button and the US collar disk are both WW1/WW2 era. Nice finds!

Looking good! Nice digs and congrats on the ring find!

The older button is Navy if it is legit. There are some knock offs for wool coats etc... Nice finds regardless!!

Those are some great looking military buttons.

You have a couple of newer buttons, the US and the great seal, both are from 1900's to present.

Congrats on the silver ring and dime.

Congratulations on the silver finds. Anytime you have questions about military items the 82nd Airborne museum can probably answer them easily. Back in my day it was just down from 3rd brigade headquarters.
