Not sure of the age on that one because of the unusual pins on the back. Never seen one like that. Gary
 

Thanks for trying Gary !
 

Looks like a WWII US Collar Tab. :thumbsup:

Nice find,
Dave

Very cool find- Congrats!
 

Too funny, I found the same thing yesterday at a late 1800's house and got super excited because I've found civil war things next door. Once I got home and cleaned it off I realized it has ballou/butterfly clutches on the back (like tie tacks have), so know it's not old. I think those type pin backs were invented around WWII so maybe it's that old but mine might be newer. Looks like yours has the pin things bent that would have had the clutches on them.

Yep Military collar disc Nice find
 

Welcome to tnet Heather keep those relics coming
 

Very nice find! :occasion14:

Interesting, I found a WW II US Collar Tab today in a farm field (thanks Antiquarian) for the ID! :icon_thumleft:
 

Very nice recovery.
 

Yep! It could be modern. It looks just like the ones I had on my U.S. army uniforms in the late 1960's!
 

Those bent pins threw me. Would have looked normal if the pins were straight.:BangHead: Gary
 

I agree with the rest. It is a Collar Tab. Nice military find.
 

Nice!!! Congrats!!!
