    This pin/button was found in midstate South Carolina, on a share cropper house site. As of now, I don't know any info about the dates of the house or land info, but something else I found very closeby on the same site was an aluminum piece off of a Monarch Stereoscope Viewer. Patent for those was around 1905, so that may help date this a bit.
    This is a two piece, with the back appearing to be brass, and the front maybe copper, as it's turned green.
    After arduous searching online, I can't find anything that looks exactly like this pin/button, but I did find a design that's kinda similar for more modern pins for "Christian Endeavor," a youth organization founded in the 1880's, which spread worldwide and is still going today.
    Or, maybe this is something completely different.... Is it worth anything? $5? 10 million??? Help me solve the mystery please! Curiosity is killin' this cat! Hahaha
