Congrats on the '41 Quarter, but I really like that World War I Victory Medal!

"The World War I Victory Medal was a United States World War I service medal designed by James Earle Fraser. The award of a common allied service medal was recommended by an inter-allied committee in March 1919. Each allied nation would design a 'Victory Medal' for award to their military personnel, all issues having certain common features, including a winged figure of Victory on the obverse and the same ribbon. The Victory Medal was originally intended to be established by an act of Congress. The bill authorizing the medal never passed, however, thus leaving the military departments to establish it through general orders. The War Department published orders in April 1919, and the Navy in June of the same year."

Some of the buttons from this site look early and the KG II indicated this site to be from the mid 1700s
