<p>[QUOTE="Lark, post: 6855163, member: 13605"]Not reproductions but the design has not changed in years and they are still being used for the military. I mostly collect civil war and gold guilded millitary. I have collected buttons for many years but would not consider my self an expert. I just do alot of research. I have books but mostly research on line. I thought that looked like a Tie tack. The tie tack back would not be a button but more of brooch or removeable accent. Waterbury has a website and they might tell you how old. I am thinking 1965 to present. They use to be the Waterbury Co. They have been around for 200 years. go to the <a href="https://waterburybutton.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://waterburybutton.com/" rel="nofollow">https://waterburybutton.com/</a> website very interesting story. I have 35 lbs of common buttons many of them very old but very common that I am trying to sell and then I have probably 3 lbs at least of good buttons that I need to get on etsy . it just takes time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
