    Got em in a junk drawer lot. I know the Eagle Globe and Anchor is the Marine Corps, and the Crown Globe and Laurels are the Royal Marines, but I have never seen the Eagle Globe and Laurels before. Backmark has no text. Maybe just a "military-like" button from a fashion coat?

      Appears to say 1972 in roman numerals?

      same-old-davey, I'm tempted to say fashion buttons; however, that date which looks to me like MCMLXXIX (1979) seems like it must mean something.

      What it means is TBD.
