Need Help With Identification


Recommended Posts

I found this medal in a private 1800's yard and thought it was a military medal but could not locate anything that matched.  It appears to be copper with material that was apparently inlaid on the front. Any help or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

Steve,

Thanks for looking.  I'm still researching.

Might be from a hat or bag? Looks like it had a cloth covering in the middle at one time.

Kac,

You're guess is as good as any at this time.  I was leaning towards military because of the two eagle heads st the top.  Also it measures 2.25" tall.

Thanks for your input.

Your probably right on military so if that is the case the cloth might have been a flag? Maybe it was a buckle cover that went to a satchel or bag.

Steve,

That covers a lot of ground.  This may remain a mystery and will always be interesting.  Thanks again for your efforts.

I've looked at hundreds of US military medals and awards, Boy Scouts, and have been looking at German, Italian, and others! No luck yet!
