Welcome to DW Reg Wink The first is as you suspect a General Service corp button usually dating from WW1, the second is a bit more difficult but certainly a coin ummmm? I shall have a ponder and see if anyone else has any good id's.

ok, i'm going to support Bens comment that its more like a roman [than a georgian]. I must admit that it has the look a 4th century face about it.

best if you hand it over to your local FLO for a more positive ID.

Thanks for the new pics.

cheers
