Could someone please help me Identify this button.

I found this where I found some 1890's coins all the way up to 1950's wheat pennys just to help with the time frame.

Can you show the backside? Back marks are the best way to id a button. It appears to be a post CW civilian button but the back marks if any can determine that.

Ha Ha, I just found one exactly like that one the other day. I was actually on here looking to see if anyone else had found one and then saw your post. I don't have a clue yet what it's identity is but I found a couple nicer ones with different crest designs down the road a ways in an area that seems to have all kinds of history to it. Lots of stone tools and stuff. Great place to wander around in the Arkansas area. This is the first time I have even had access to a computer in a long time so hopefully I can post some pics soon. Gosh, I love this forum. That is a part of the thrill of this hobby , you never know just what might turn up. Now that I got my new MXT I am a treasure hunting nut. Thanks guys, and good luck with your hunting.

Here is another one.
I found it last night at the park in front of my house, sure would like to know it's vintage.
And again the back of the button is all rust.

Your button is reminiscent of an Italian designed button sporting the fasces (see the back of a Liberty Dime), and given the frequency with which they are found here on American soil and posted here on T-Net I must assume they are a mere modern fashion buton.
