This button displays the Ordnance arms. Circa 23.5mm in diameter, it is flat and retains its original fixed shank. Gilt finish and detail is very worn, possibly excavated, but in good condition despite this. This was the second pattern button worn circa 1790 until 1802. Other ranks wore the same design as officer's but in pewter. Scarce.
