Thread: Hey Dan & George could it be??????

    Hey Dan & George could it be??????

    where Todd dug his Mass 2nd Regt button I dug one of my 3 pewters only a few feet from his.while 2 were designed civilian pewters,this one looked so far gone I just sealed it and plopped it up on the shelf.today doing a little organizing I took a look at it again..now i don't know if my eyes are playing tricks on me or what but,I swear i see a faint 2.
    what do you guys think?
    I also won a great book on a facebook radio show.
    Todd's button is the 1st pic

    I'm not buying it you beggar. Looks like a sun (star like) pattern around a center circle to me. I see little symbols like this ">" connecting all around a circle.

    I see "Dead People"..... well actually it does look a bit like a 2 hard to tell for sure, rub some dirt on it might give it some definition.

    Dave when you look at the two buttons side by side the two 2's ( if yours was indeed a 2) don't look the same to me . Todd's 2 has a very closed top while yours looks more open also the mid section and length of the "tail" is a bit off compared to Todd's . I think its something other than a 2 on your button perhaps just a design as George said.

    You had that button and didn't put them side by side? I like the magic marker version better

    Hey Dave. I think it's a sunburst. If you squint at it the design somewhat appears. Still a nice find!
