I found this button in my yard today, it looks old, but I am not sure. The back was iron, and crumbled off when I picked it up. Appears to be copper or bronze. I can make out an axe on the top, and on the crest it has a Pi and an E (I think). Its just a little larger than a penny. The house was built in the 70's, but an older house was close. button.jpg

Good idea!
It is very similar, but both the heads match, and look like lions. but all the leaves around the edge are all olive looking, and no oak.
I think its a close copy of the French emblem, and based off of it for sure. Maybe the letters are JIE, they are all connected at the top.

Ok, I am going to mark this solved, I think Kiros32 might have hit it on the head. Its the 2nd I found in my yard, the other was partially crushed, and I couldn't make a lot of it out. Thanks for all the help!!
