Found this button in a privy. Anything ?

Any writing on the back? It'll help if there is.

great looking button. I am sure someone can help, as it looks like it has good detail.

Nice one!

It's an Ohio state seal button. Not sure, but I believe it's the variety listed by Albert as #OH 5A. If so, it's postwar.

Here's a link to a similar button currently listed on eBay:

Yup... just about to post... nice button too...

 

[Bottleviking]

Yep, PBK, it is the same one as in the ebay link, and says the same thing on the back. I'll post the dig details on the bottle forum. Thanks to all again.
