Got out for about an hour after work today. Tried my newly found "Deep Silver" program. Found two small cool buttons, don't know how old they are. Any ideas? Also found a nice silver bracelet and tons of clad but my son spends it before I can take a picture! Rich M.

The one button is The Great Seal,they made them from 1902 to present.But the way that yours looks
I would say pretty modern,there is a lot of gilt still on the button.Here is one that I found,I think mine
is from the 50's.
Congrats on your find

Thanks, I think you're right. I found this on an old green but they have antique fairs and tag sales so it could have been lost recently but it was about 4 inches down.. I did find some info on the "D Evans" button back but it was very broad...Rich.
 
Yes, the D. EVANS & CO. started with their bacmarks on buttons in 1848.
