Me and a friend were detecting an old CCC camp this past weekend and I came across this. It's a souvenir badge from a United Confederate Veterans reunion held in Montgomery, AL on June 2-5 1931. (At least that's what the badge says..haha) I believe there was a separate piece attached to the top that had a pin on it. I reckon that part is still pinned to the guys jacket!
The camp was built in the early 30s, so this thing must have been brand new when it was dropped. It was about 4 inches deep with some rusty nails near it. My little Bandido 2 picked right through the trash and rang out loud and clear. The site didn't yield much else of any interest, but I'm going back to hit it when I have time to be a little more thorough. Lemme know if any of yall have seen or found one of these, or if you have any more info. First I've seen, I was stoked to find it.
(Apologies if the pics are too large/small. First time pic poster here..)
