Re: Buncha buttons with no id's

the navy button with no back is actually a sport coat button.

This one is a U.S. Air Force uniform button:

That street fair badge is a sweet find!! Looks like it hung seperately from a pin, originally(my guess).

Bullet from a 50 cal. MG??

Cool stuff!!!.....HH

Right! It's the medallion, or "drop," of a souvenir suspension badge. The top part probably looked something like one of these:

No,I did a bit a research and found one on ebay. It looks faked becasue it has been home repaired. It was obviosly 2 peiced, however, the back came off and two holes were puched in. I saw the exact disign on an auction that told me they were from the navy

Thanks PBK!!!

Let me know what button book this is in.I have 2 that look just like it and i cant find it listed in Alberts button book in navy buttons.But if it really is a navy button i will have to put mine in my military collection!!
As in previous posts i have a whole box of trade dollars that were supposedly real listed on ebay and are all fake...
