I'm currently navigating this website on a phone and won't be able to get to a computer until Wednesday. I will look at the links then. Thanks for them and I hope they help. Surprisingly, I've never seen a button with a flower like mine on the internet when I searched for it.
Alright, I'm completely stumped this time. This button came from the same home site. It's got no markings except a flower and a pattern on the edges around the flower. It's smaller than a dime (penny shown) and has a broken shank. The shank almost looks hand applied, but as you can all probably...
Thanks, Poison_Us. Actually, I've been researching the Boy Scouts buttons and have learned a lot on buttons themselves. It seems to be a really money-involved hobby, and I don't think I'd ever want to get involved with it. [>:]
Thanks for the information. I would have assumed with the bear and all, it would have to do with the boy scouts. By the way, where did that picture come from?
I made this find today with my Garret AT Pro. I'm thinking it's a boy scout button, but I'm not really sure. It's a little bit bigger than a quarter and there is a hole in the back where I'm thinking a shank or loop would go. The only markings are the bear and design on the front. Could anyone...

I found this horseshoe metal detecting today and have never seen anything like this. I googled antique horseshoes, and saw one like this in a lot on Ebay and in a picture of a Rare Horseshoe stand at a show. That was all though. Anyone know how to date these or know the date of this specific...
Yesterday, I went back to the guy whom I bought all my Christmas bottles from. The trip was just as satisfying as last time, but my wallet wasn't happy. [:D][:D][:D] Anyways, I'm just going to do names and photos, but if anyone wants any more information or more photos on a particular one, feel...
Thanks for looking! As requested by Surfaceone, here are some extra pics. the debossing is done with 3 stamps. The first stamp is: " J. A. Lomax/ 14, 18 & 18/ Charles Place/ Chicago" The second stamp is the Lomax trademark. The third stamp is "This Bottle/ Must Be Returned" There is also some...
