cazzuey Valued Member Canada 367 Posts	Posted 10/09/2011 11:25 pm Hey folks, Just a quick question. Does anybody know anything about buttons? I was apple picking today and came across an old English button that reads "Best Quality London". I found it while walking on a gravel road. I looked for button collecting forums but nothing turned up. I found two other examples of the coin on Google Images. Here's the link I came across. http://www.personal-goal-setting.co...atbutton.jpg Thanks, cazzuey Edited by cazzuey 10/10/2011 5:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16832 Posts	Posted 10/18/2011 10:41 am Buttons are usually brass, rather than copper. We'd have to see pics of your actual button to get a true idea of the condition, but with no markings visible on the front, it's probably not going to be worth much. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
