Default Great Seal Button
Got my first military button today. I haven’t gotten a button book yet so I wanted to check in with some of y’all and make sure I’ve done my home work correctly.

Great Seal Coat Button w/ gilt
Waterbury Button Co
Pre 1965..?

Well I don’t think it would be pre 1965. The Waterbury Button is still in business. I would think your button is more modern.

Nice find for sure. It looks like pre 65 to me but I’m not for certain.
