Found this yesterday.

Only found buttons and coppers today and yesterday Wink
The best one is this!

The face part seems to be silver - generates heat when cleaned with foil!
Pressed over a modern type mechanism - spring loaded to hold as a lapel.

Any thoughts anyone Huh Huh

Had it verified on UKDFD

It's a silver cuff or collar stud 1872-1900

Known as a bachelor button as it didn't need sewing on!!

Pleased with any silver Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley
