Badge for identification
Newbie!
Found a few military badges and buttons over many years via metal detecting in random fields. Thought I'd post them up over the next week for Identification. Thanks |

Thanks for the response. I thought it was a horse leather but could not find the image on Google.
I've have found several Army buttons and badges in random locations in fields. I can see some fields near villages were probably used for training purposes. I can also see Army guys home for the weekend taking so a local lass into the nearest field of an evening! I was a product of one of these liaisons. I Just found out i have a half brother and sister after 53 years (Army dad dead) through a DNA test as i never knew my biological Dad. Last edited by Detectorist; 29-11-21 at 06:52 PM. |

Buttons
To be honest most dug badges have no to very little monetary value but buttons can lots of rare military buttons like militia and volunteers can be worth money. I know you’ve not asked about values but just a heads up.

Yup.... dont forget Yeomanry. I have purchased dug early Leics Yeo buttons found on the Leics Notts border. They are so rare that in any condition they will have a value.
