Did pretty good today---Went to one sale and bought a whole box of jewelry which included many costume pieces for our antique shop and some sterling silver pieces(111 grams!). Paid $15 for all the jewelry!
I also bought an Alamo Embassy amplifier for $10--Was that a good deal? I don't know a whole lot about those things :icon_scratch: and need to do some research. If anyone can tell me when these were made, I sure would appreciate it. The woman I bought it from said it was her sons and it worked. I plugged it in and the little red light comes on.
Here's some pics! Hope everyone has a great weekend at the sales!

Some military buttons/lapel pins that were mixed in with all the jewelry---Anyone know what the second one from the left is? It looks like crossed cannons and a shell maybe?

My guess would be that the crossed cannon are some type of artillery unit.

Thanks s.c. shooter---That will give me some direction on where to start looking.

Coastal Artillery, post WW 1, probably late 1930s. Nice finds :icon_thumleft:
