Try putting it in the what is it section. Any marks on the back? If so take a pic and it will be easier to Id. Glad to see that people are still out huning. I can't because we are frozen over >:(

Nice job on the silver. No help on IDing but I did find the match to the item in the last picture within the last few weeks. Found at a site that produced Mercs and Barbers so it looks like it maybe from the early 1900s.

Nice find Tony

How deep were the silvers, and which unit were you using for the hunt, (F70 or the Whites).

Gotta give you credit for gettin' out in this weather and finding the goods!

Congrats! :icon_thumright:

Nice Digs!
scroll down on my earlier post for pix of button like yours.
Think it's Pullman or something. PM Woodlawn Detectors, he may remember where he got the pic.

I found a button exactly like the one you have a couple of weeks ago.
I posted it and told it was off a policemans uniform... early 1900's.
Nice finds,
