Army Button (?)

[Coop0901]

Hi Everyone,

My kids and I found this very fun button a few months ago. We are complete newbies to the world of metal detecting. I did show this to a relic store in Gettysburg when we were passing through and he thought it was civil war, but I’m slowly learning the hard way the value of getting additional opinions. We found this one east of Harrisburg, PA.

What are your thoughts?

Well its a band button. Not sure of how old but don't think it's civil war.

I’ll take it - it was pretty grimy and indiscernible at the time, so it wasn’t until cleanup at the house we even realized it was pretty good.
