Well the treble Gilt just means how many times the button was Gilted to give it its gold colour. There was a few different qualities of gilding . Gilt , double gilt and treble gilt - treble Gilt being the highest quality.

When I go detecting my wife gives me quadruple Guilt far outweighing any fear that the wearer of that navy button would have had when faced with the enemy.......  Wink
