vince1977 Pillar of the Community Netherlands 847 Posts	Posted 06/22/2014 07:49 am Hello Members, Here 2 buttons which I found years ago here in the Netherlands with an metal detector. They appear to be 2 buttons from regiment entrangers off napoleon bonaparte. And someone told me they are very rare because these regiments were not the usual regiments. The regiments are 1 and 4 according to the buttons. And here below some information I got about it. http://www.napolun.com/mirror/web2....poleon_3.htm Report this Post to the Staff

Such a mix of nationalities! By the appearance of the buttons perhaps the original owners were Buglers? Thanks for sharing. Report this Post to the Staff

All I know it was some kind of special group/force and all other buttons I know from this periods are from bronze/copper. And some with numbers but with no horn on it. I had an copper one as well. More commen type. As symbol you see almost the same front as 12 deniers copper coin from france late 18th century. Unfortunatly I don't have an picture her with me. And I've to search into my collection for it. Report this Post to the Staff
