Hello All. I found these tonight in an old orange grove near a 19-teens store.

At first I thought the pin was a random piece of bent brass, but the curled and the pointy ends look by design.

The clothing rivet has 13 stars on it and looks old...significant find or common junk?

Any info is welcome and thanks for viewing my post. HH C9

The rivet button is likely, I believe, from HBT (herringbone twill) Army work clothes, like these: HBT Field Uniform WW II

Hello nhbenz. You nailed it on the button, it looks like a match. Not real old but WWII vintage stuff is OK by me.

Thanks for the reply and link. Good luck and HH. C9
