woa that button is in extremely good shape for its age. poor old bell has seen better days tho :coffee2:
 

great seal button was introduced in 1902 * --the pat 83 would most likely be 1883*

1901 to 1904 era for the 16 gauge american eagle - its a scarce if not rare one - rated as a 1 rarity level --it was bought out by marlin *
 

Couldn't find much about Canuck shells, I think though that the company folded in the 70's
 

I think the button is more recent than WWI. More likely WWII or Korea. The style would be the same, but the wear is extremely light for a button 100 years old.
 

thanks for the feedback i always give the best info given the site and finds from the spot,and history .its the best hobby,to have, thanks
 

P.Wiederer was acompany operating in New York, they were involved in a case around 1870 pertaining to importation of glass for pocket watches.
