I went back to an old site today and found these relics.
The one piece button is silver plated and measures 24 mm's.
It has a good solid shank also.
13 stars and stripes,rattlesnake border with 13 rattles.
This variant is unknown to me.
Thanks for looking..

Very Nice historic button WTG :notworthy:
 
kool digs! I wonder how many people dig nice buttons and dont think they are worth saving? I am sure I have thrown away some things I shouldnt have.... nothing of this magnitude obviously but still

Troiani needs that one in his book, and it is a banner find without a doubt!
