✅ SOLVED Should be easy.....

HEy guys, this one should be easy, but Im having some trouble with it.

Ive found several images of this button and the general consensus is US Navy, I cant seem to match it up in my books though. No backmark.

Trying to date this...any ideas?

Pardon me just doing a cut-&-paste from my previous replies about this type of button:

It is definitely a 20th-Century semi-imitation of the actual US Navy button, made for use on civilian coats/jackets/blazers. As you suspected, they have no value to Military button-collectors, because they are only a civilian-usage imitation of an actual military button. They are still being made, and can be bought at sewing-supplies stores like JoAnn Crafts & Fabrics.​
