Buttons

[63cagedfalcon]

Hello, first post.

I was given a group of buttons a while back & was told they were Russian. This has proved false.

Star buttons from US WW2 on coveralls.

Three legged eagle was told Hessian?

Silver one with eagle still unsure.

Who's the button expert?

Thanks Paul

1st - I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard Paul! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forum: Select Your Area.... for information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country).

2nd - Until a member pipes in - I pulled these from other TN threads...

Everytime I try to edit profile it stops, will try later.

According to the first chart, the Hessian button is 1830+?

My 13 star buttons are riveted like on Levi's so are modern not like examples shown.

Unable to locate third button on any chart yet.
