Title: Military Buttons
Post by: 150aceboy on January 25, 2010, 12:15:47 PM
I was given a couple of Military Buttons yesterday by the in-laws.
They told me that they were a few years old and came off an Army Great Coat  ???
Can anyone tell me anything about them, such as Regiment and Age.
Thanks all
Ace  ;)
