Hi all,

Found this thinking it was all rusted up, but after putting it under a magnifying lens and tooth picking it, I realized the orange color is actually some kind of fabric.

It looks like it had a pin on the back and on the front there appears to be something darker color, perhaps a letter amidst the orange fabric.

Besides knowing what it could be does anyone have any idea of what I could clean it up with to better help with identifying it?

Thanks!

Let it dry for a few days before you work on it so the dirt is easier to knock off. Can't really see much detail in your photos, but I'd maybe start with very light touches from a child's toothbrush (they are super soft). And see what comes up.
