you need to put a size reference in pic. & view of the other side. kinda looks like fitting for piping

 

[AU Seeker]

It's looks more like an escutcheon for a doorknob, but hard to tell without a size mentioned or something included for size reference.

 

[bountyhuntergirl86]

here ya go, reverse view

 

[bountyhuntergirl86]

I thought it was 4 a door knob too though i wasn't sure.. thanks for the input.. :-)

 

[Carloates88]

Maybe a door bell

 

[bountyhuntergirl86]

that may be right, they where about that size... :-)

 

[nhbenz]

A mechanical doorbell, door knocker and doorknob can could all use a rosette of this type and May be identical on a matched set of door hardware. However, so far I'd go with the doorknob rosette... one that clips onto a larger backplate, since your item lacks screw holes. But I can't find pictures to support this, so I'll be curious to see if anyone can find a definitive answer (I hope!).

 

[bountyhuntergirl86]

prime suspect... Hmmm?

 

[bountyhuntergirl86]

or maybe this one?

 

[Carloates88]

Good ID that looks like the treasure

How did you get permission to hunt at Stones River?

 

[bountyhuntergirl86]

a church was being torn down, down the street from the park,and they allowed me too...

 

[Dirt.Is.Good.4U]

Ah, very nice. Great opportunity. GL !

 

[bountyhuntergirl86]

thx :-)

 

[Papa Bear]

Well done on striking while the iron was hot!

 

[bountyhuntergirl86]

wat kind of button is this??

 

[bill from lachine]

bountyhuntergirl86,

You're doing great US probably general service 2 piece button....believe that type spans a fairly long period of use....any writing on the back....you may want to take another set of pictures maybe on a white paper background to bring out the
details more clearly.

Regards + HH
