Nice Pieces.
Silver Also
Do you think the Military Insignia & buttons are from WW2 , I also noticed a slight difference in the shield on the Great Seal Buttons ; Maybe 1 from WW2 & 1 from Korea

Imagine in the VERY early days of Relic Huntin Civil War Buttons Well Made Buttons came out as nice.

 

[metaldetkid]

Both the artillery insignias are screw back and are ww2 or earlier. The older great seal button is ww2 and the other is newer for sure. The DUI is more modern.

Nice finds. Not sure how old it is, the fleur di lis badge is an 82nd Airborne Division Unit Crest.

would have to see backs of collar discs to try and date better - I have a handful from WW I
one great seal looks like possible WW I

Very nice military finds. The buttons and collar disks are always a pleasure to dig.

Very well done! I like the artillery collar discs... anything with cannons on it is cool to me..and a silver coin.

Good to see someone in NC finding the good stuff!

 

[metaldetkid]

Here are the backs.

 

[Carolina Tom]

I have a few collar discs... those threaded posts are the older ones. You might already know all of this, but here is a bit of info on the discs.
