Well done as always, DCMatt!

According to Van Court's book on railroad buttons, this Lehigh Valley Railroad variety dates c. 1928.

An earlier version had "Lehigh" and "Valley" above and beneath the flag, respectively, and a star on the left and right.

Haven't seen one listed recently, but a while back buttons dealer Bob Edmondson was offering a button like yours for $7.

Go back to your first post and click "Modify."

Add the word "SOLVED" to the title.

Next, click the Message Icon "STANDARD" button and select "SOLVED" at the bottom of the menu.

Now click the "SAVE" button at the bottom of the page.

That's it!
