Made it out.. Finally......

[Toadman]

Got out to a site I aint hit in prob 3 years.. Wasn't looking good at all for 2 hours, Till i got the button, I was happy enough with that since my back was killin ! :beatdown: When i looked it up and saw it is from the Spanish-American war I was pumped ! finally something from the S-A war !! can't find the exact same front and backmarks, but wicked happy anyway ! :angelic: :angelic: Cleaned up with just plain water..

Back reads .. T W&W across the top H on left, M on right, And Paris across the bottom.. appears to be a 2nd Mass infantry 4th unit, Spanish-American war coat button.. On the pillars. it reads Plus on the left column, and Ultra on the right..Infantria on the bottom :drool:

its a great looking button Rick and in outstanding condition |:cheering: |:cheering: but it appears to be a Spanish military coat button and not an American Military one but still from that time period (Spanish American War) heres a link of the Spanish ones and yours is the third one down .
