My dad found this 14k pin today, don't quite know what it is, it's about the size of a nickle. On the back it reads, 14k, J. B. King, '19.

It looks to me like an old sports award or medal. CC could be a high school or college.

Super find!!! Not only cool looking but 14K too, awesome!

Is canon-shooting considered a sport in the US?

I see two crossed canons there..

Welcome and Awesome find -- was it with a metal detector? I'm pretty sure its an old Princeton University Canon Club pin -- they use the tiger and crossed cannon logo and CC would be short for cannon club. here's a link to their website. Logo in upper right. As a new jerseyan -- tiger = princeton.

Excellent. what was the signal like?- it's probably pretty collectible. I couldn't find a picture of the cannon club logo by itself, but here's a picture of year book:
