Yes……also a first for me. Pretty sure they’re not that common

I'd like to see a picture of them when you get them cleaned up.

Nice digs!

I'm curious to know the back mark on the 3rd button. It looks like a pre-war variety.

Could be. I tried looking last night, but in the state of cleanliness they’re hard to see. Will say the letters appear small compared to most I’ve seen

Edit…..you’re likely better at back marks than me. Here is a closeup I took last night (not overly cleaned). Think I can see a “……mld co” from about the 10-1.

First and second pics are of the eagle. It is a 20mm button, and as best I can tell it says SCOVILL MFG CO (dot) Waterbury. Closest I can find is Albert’s GI 94.

Pics 3&4 are of the va button. Hard to read backmark but can see young and something that resembles smith. 22mm button. Looks like VA2D in tice, but the button in the book is a 23mm.

Long way of saying…….as it normally works for me and buttons….eh, looks kinda similar but cant confirm.

Haven’t started on csn button yet, honestly a bit scared to try to clean it. Will try tomorrow and revert back with pics.

Thanks for looking.
