Button

[PAEric]

I found buttons coins you name it arrowhead hunting, normally with a little research I have a pretty good idea what I found. This button I cant find anything on, the front has an eagle, with United We Stand, the back says fine colour. I thought this would be pretty easy to ID, not this one, lol!

I found some buttons in that field that match up with scoville buttons but they don't have the stamp on the back, they could be anything. None military pretty cool. Thanks for the help!

Heres a few more, I keep them in a historic finds tray, ones an old goodyear hard rubber button. When Im working I don't get a lot of computer time, so if I don't get back to people for a while you know why. People collect buttons like people coleect arrowheads, Im not a button person, if its interesting I keep it!
