With the crown and eagle Germany comes to mind also. Is there anything on the back? With the anchor pretty sure it's navy related.

The Russian imperial stuff usually had the double headed eagle of the Holy Roman Empire but it does have an "imperial look". I would also ask what the back looks like, even if it isnt marked the shank style is helpful in dating buttons. It may just be a military motif decorated button. may be a merchant marine or other quasi military org.

Hi Pat,
I took the liberty of posting a pic of your button over on the metal detecting forum I belong to. (Hope that's OK?)
I'll let you know whatever info I get on it.
Is there anything on the back of it?
Cool Button!!
Char

Fine w/ me. In fact it's not my button. I pulled it from Ga Outdoor Network, better know as the "Bible Toating Far Far Right Homegrown Nazi I Love G. W. Bush and Terrified of Obama Simple Minded Pinheads Net" IMOH

The the GON sounds like my kind of place. I'd make friend fast there I'm sure. Cuz I got a Bible in my home. For the longest time it was holding up the back left side of the couch. Kid broke the leg off jumping on it when she was little and it was the perfect size. God does work in mysterious ways. Got a new sofa a while back and i lost track of it. But i'll dig her out for my new buds at the GONzo network!

 A Liberal Yankee Catholic Democrat, Itialian to boot. Mr. Lobey they'd swear you were the Mafia/anti-Christ. I saw and was stunned this AM when the question was " Was there dinosaurs on Noahs Ark?". No kidding. On the political side the question was " Can you be a Democrat and a Christian?". Check them out allways good for a few laughs. These people give the South a bad name.

Sounds alot like tha AOD Bubba Network. Some of them boys can write there own name and I saw two of them whose wifes had some toofes.   Told me that they would burn a cross on my lawn. Told them it would be through a storm of 4" XXX Mag military buck shot and that I know where they all live. Been waitin for my cross burnin for near 20 years know. I hope all them boys is ok.

What is mysterious about God is that some folks, through natural cousin selection of course, are allowed to freely breed.

A guy from Finland found it posted on a Polish Website, and couldn't really understand much that the translator spit out, but, bottom line, Spanish Navy button, date unknown.

Its a great forum, Warren, you should come check it out. Even if you don't metal detect, there's a lot of interesting posts.

Hey Char, I will keep an eye on it. I do bumb around with a magnetic stick from time to time. Found some great Spanish coins that I sold for 800 a piece. Glad i got rid of them before the Atocha was found. You can but the same coin for about 50 bucks now.
