Default Unknown American button.

Hi all,

Is anyone able to identify this small 15mm gilt button? It features some sort of tent on the front and the back-mark is WATERBURY BUTTON Co. I thought it might be a State Seal button but can't find a match.

Thanks,

David.

It belongs to one of the fraternal societies: Knights of the Maccabees
It is listed in the Big Book of Buttons (previous print), page 325.
