Dug these two buttons behind the elem. school early this morning.I think I can date the shiny one to about WWII because I found one with a similiar back recently.The other flat button says best plated on top with a crown underneath that,a star on each side with two dots around them.London on the bottom with a type of wreath going up the sides.I think someone found one similiar here.The other thing is a whatsit with the letter
"o" on top.Its like a screw top to something and the size of a nickel.Any I.D. is helpful.Thanks and HHs

Cool buttons! The round object looks like it is lead. Could it have been a baggage seal? Neat find anyway. Tsgman
