US Army Buttons

[crossfire631]

I found these US Army buttons all at the same site couple weeks ago. I’m surprise how good condition the larger button is. Possible a coat button? Anyone know how old they may be? My thoughts are they are possible WW2 era? The US has a threaded post on the back so maybe a hat or lapel button and I believe older than the others maybe 1920’s? Any help on this would be great. Still in a slump finding any silver coins but been a great year finding buttons. Thanks for looking.

The "US" is a collar disc, and dates between 1910 and 1937, The larger coat button is probably post WW1 and I'm not sure on the other two, good pics of them and their backs will help.

The two buttons without a rim date from 1901-1910. I can barely see a backmark on your rimmed button. Can you read it? Please post pictures of the backs of the rim less buttons along with any backmark information you can get from them.

Wow didn’t expect 1901-1910 dates.
This is what I can make out on the back of each button. Sorry photo doesn’t have great detail
Small rimless button hallmark - HORSEMANN
Medium rimless button hallmark - Scovill Mfg Co, Waterbury
Large rimmed button hallmark - U. A. M. CO
No visible hallmark on the US collar disk
Thanks again!

I am not positive but UAM could stand for Unique Art Manufacturing Company, Newark N.J. 1916 to about 1952.

Nice job on the Great Seal buttons, and the Collar Disc. Military buttons are always fun to find.
