Title: Buttonhole badge ID?
Post by: nick69 on April 01, 2012, 03:14:02 PM
Hi, this is my first post on this forum but I've been a lurker for a while. Been detecting for a few months with my brother in law Charlieboy, another forum member. I've usually managed to identify most of my fairly average finds with the help of the search function on here or by googling it.
I found this on Saturday, which I presume is a buttonhole badge, and i cannot ID it, and was hoping the knowledgeable ladies and gents on here could help me out.
It is about 25mm tall.
Cheers Nick
