Nothing to retire on, but I thought the button was cool - pretty big. Also a recent merc and the Time Expired tag from a parking meter.

    HUGE button, but what uniform does it go to? That would be interesting.

    I was thinking it's some kind of civilian button?

    Yes, 1927 Merc She actually did come out in decent shape - no dings or scrapes from digging!

    Hmmm... Almost kind of looks like it (or the "Join or Die" snake)! Hard to really tell is it's just rolling stripes, but if you look at the top scroll in first picture, almost looke like an upside down "NC". But the outside does remind me of the clouds from early Draped Bust Large Eagle dollars.
