✅ SOLVED Steel button from this morning. Can’t read the script.

I was afraid to start cleaning this to get a better view. I can’t imagine it has value, but still didn’t want to ruin it. It appears that the writing is inside of a shallow irregular shaped depression. I believe the lettering is raised. There could possibly be some paint on it, or it may be damage. Any help reading it appreciated.👍🏼

It does look like DINT, With all caps, but the end letters are a taller font.

That's what I'm seeing too....

Ok. I found it. This is the exact button design. Looks to be in a modified arrowhead relief area.

I’ve never determined that I was the solver in my own post before. Feels a little “slutty”! 🤷‍♂️
