Title: Military button id please Post by: Tafflaff (Rob) on November 18, 2014, 08:25:15 PM Researching a button I found today whilst out with Nobby and JCB (Why they call him JCB is beyond me as he barely digs deeper than 3 inches)
Anyhoo as I was saying whilst researching a Button which has a crowned 66 on it, I came across this text. Is this the same regiment ? Its a slivered button, Crown above 66 and single line circle around both Crown and 66 Title: Re: Military button id please Post by: jcb (THE THIMBLE) jones on November 18, 2014, 10:11:03 PM 3" haha ,why dont you tell the good folk at DW what really happened taff when the mighty xp Deus found your button at 14" and the poor old etrac struggled to keep up :D :D
