✅ SOLVED Old Eagle Head Button From Arizona

[Old Pueblo]

I found this old button with an eagle head on it along the San Pedro River, not too far from Fort Huachuca, Arizona.

Can anyone identify it for me? I think its military, but I dont know. Maybe from the World War 2 era?

Someone else here on Treasurenet has found one as well, here is the article:

Its a little bigger than a quarter, the back is rusty and the metal loop thing broken off.

Old Pueblo - I moved this request from General Discussion over to What Is It? for more exposure.

Nice button! Can you show us (or describe) the back.

 

[Old Pueblo]

Sure, its just rust though. And what is a sportsmans button, anybody?

Heres another, better shot of the button.

Very nice though. I would say sportsman button as well. Lot of times used on hunting vest and game pouches.

Thanks

Oh okay. So when were these things in use? How old do you think it might be?

Not that this provides much help, but go to this site Button miniature art - Art Kaleidoscope and scroll down to the 15th button.

Based on the rusty back, I would guess second half of the 20 C.

Thanks, I saw that one before, which is why I thought this one might be military.
