Title: Re: Finds of the day Post by: Greg on March 07, 2017, 10:55:07 PM Button quality mark 1790 to 1850, number of examples such as 'Rich Gold' or 'Rich Orange' used by British manufacturers.
Ornate mount looks like an Escutcheon cover. Title: Re: Finds of the day Post by: Andre on March 08, 2017, 07:17:53 AM Ta👍
