✅ SOLVED Help to ID two buttons

[Kapidr]

These are two metal detecting finds, one's I think a recent or kinda old NY Cop button, anyone able to ID it as to date etc?

One is I think a civil war button? It looks like two musket rifles crossed. Can anyone help ID and date it?

Hi; I believe the first one is a Civil War Infantry Button. The Second one is a New York Police Dept Button. QUESTION: What does the last word say after PDC I await. PEACE:RONB

Not civil war. It's a 20th century infantry collar disk

No, sorry about my vague description of where on that page had the relevant information. Fairly near the bottom it shows the type of attachment on the back that yours has, describing that it is from after WWII. The infantry insignia on the front was essentially the same then (different weapon same design).

I think your New York button is a civilian fashion one. It actually looks like a snap you would find at the top of the fly on a pair of blue jeans(denim). It may have been used by the company known as Paper Denim & Cloth LLC. That would explain the ampersand in the middle of the button design. Here's a link that might help.
