Title: Tiny silver button Post by: artkat on October 20, 2016, 05:56:56 PM Hi folks
Found this tiny button today, approx 6in deep on pasture With my euroace. Tried foil and spit test when i got home, rotten eggs, so pretty sure it's silver. The only marking I can make out is what looks like an E and a J. Could this be a makers mark ? I assume the button is too small to have a full set of marks. Thanks in advance for any info. Cheers Adrian Title: Re: Tiny silver button Post by: nobby on October 20, 2016, 08:38:30 PM I think it would have started out a s a silver coin...probably sixpence and made into a button

Interesting thought. I've had a few silver 6d and 3d But this button is smaller. Cheers Adrian Title: Re: Tiny silver button Post by: congerman on October 21, 2016, 06:37:08 PM interesting find well searched
