Hello all, I recently picked this up and was wondering if anyone might have a clue as to what it could be or might have been previously attached? I know it’s the 109th DUI but I haven’t seen anything else like it. Seems to be made of brass and has a good weight and size to it. Not sure of the age.

What is your resource giving this as “109th Infantry Division?”

 

Not a DI

 

Not 109th Infantry Division (no such Div existed in US Army)

 

Bears resemblance to 55th or 56th Infantry Brigades (depends on background color) but not round, either. 55th inactivated 1942; 56th redesig 28th Cav Recon  Trp (28th ID). Both bdes 28th Div NG PA. Looks pre-war.

 

Unk use to me.

Not the 109th Infantry Regiment either. It does have a resemblance to the crest (on top of the CoA) but is facing a diff direction. 
 

Don’t bet on Wiki, either. There are many other more accurate resources - books- than on line.
