A couple of days ago, I was in a little thrift store here in town....and bought what was labeled as a "WWII Ship Builders War Service Button" for $12.99. Turns out, the service medal is actually from WWI. Here's a pic of one like mine....stole the pic from the internet...not my pic...using it without permission....I know...I am a BAD man.

The button I bought is a lot less pretty....very grimy, lots of patina, looks like it has been kept in the bottom of a bacon grease can for half a century...and that is how it is going to stay....not going to clean it at all.
