The title of your post is...anyhow, 20th century US Army collar disc. Artillery. World War I or so. I'm not sure how you tell the ones from 1916ish to the 1930's but in that time frame.

Also, see page 96, fig. 6-208. at this site: Encyclopedia of United States Army Insignia and Uniforms - William K. Emerson - Google Books

Due to the disc's smallness in the photos, and being somewhat out-of-focus, all I can be sure of at present is that it is from sometime between 1910 and 1937. The cannon barrels look "long-&-THIN" in comparison to the 1910-1916 Artilleryman version, so it may be the 1917-1918 version. However, if the background is smooth (no tiny diamond-shaped crosshatching), it is the 1924-1937 Artilleryman version. Because you can examine your disc close-up in real-life, and we can't, compare it with the ones shown (and dated) here: Dating Metallic Insignia: Collar Disks

Edit: Montana Jim and I were typing at the same time. I'm more long-winded than he is, due to my tendency to give "detailed" answers

I'll post as 'SOLVED' thank you, it is indeed the 1917-18 type. First DISK I noticed was the US National Army disk that I found years ago and never I.D.ed-- as stated by all, you folks are the best!! da Prof ♬♬
